Instead of discussing Madonna's name or how great she looks or how we all want to fuck her. Let's keep the discussion intelligent. Doesn't anyone remember that the "I" in IDM stands for "Intelligent"! Talking about her new single, its hard to listen to it without a bias towards a pop superstar. Its actually pretty fine (honestly). Although there had to be moments of catchy pop formula, the record showcases a lot of William Orbit. If I did not know it was Madonna, I would have thought One Dove have finally released a record.
