iTunes Releases "Lost Tracks" Based On Characters

I'll just post what TV Guide says. What do you think about their selection for each character? Do you have a better suggestion?

Lost fans, need another way to express your devotion to the show? Buy their music!

Yeah, that's disappointing. Would love to see a song list for both. Here's a song suggestion for just the show in general. How about "In Limbo" by Radiohead from their Kid A album.

Lyrics go lke this (Ok, yes, I'm totally geeking out now):

I'm on your side
Nowhere to hide
Trapdoors that open
I spiral down

You're living in a fantasy world
You're living in a fantasy world

I'm lost at sea
Don't bother me
I've lost my way
I've lost my way

You're living in a fantasy world
You're living in a fantasy world
You're living in a fantasy world
This beautiful world
