I really love "Lost." I am also quite fond of my children, and no longer do I have to choose between the two on a weekly basis. Tonight, my boys -- recent young and dedicated converts to the cult -- and I will be gleefully attending an intimate "Lost" premiere viewing party complete with our own "Apollo Bars" provided by my lovely wife. As our shared excitement builds, here are some TV Island Discs to celebrate our time on the Island.

Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies
And I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come?
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me
