DJ comments: Xanadu got some love from the show Lost recently. It's about time this cinematic (and musical) gem gets some dap. — cwc

If we ever decide to do a "Best of Alphabet Soup" show -- this moment will probably make #1. Yes, ONJ is on our show. We rule. — BJ

Lightspeed Champion:   Web site   MySpace

DJ comments: It's a brave soul who tries to tackle this song. Good job, Lightspeed Champion. — cwc

It was a moment of beauty when Chris realized that the Lightspeed Champion song that started with "X" had the same name as an Olivia Newton John song. The lightbulbs exploded in the room at the exact moment. — BJ
