I'm In Love With A German Film Star. This hypnotic single by U.K. performance artist Sam Taylor-Wood provides much-needed dreamy escapism...if only for three minutes and 44 seconds! Produced by the Pet Shop Boys (who also did a full Symphonic Mix that's also available on this remix EP), the track is a cover of The Passions' lone British hit from 1981. Here it's reinvented as a mid-tempo pop/dance track that makes feeling like you're slipping underwater sound so good. Danke schön, Sam.
