La X is a Colombian music radio network operated and owned by Todelar. The station in Bogotá airs an English-language adult contemporary format, the Cali station airs an English-language contemporary hit radio format, while the Medellín station airs an electronica format.
"LA X" comprises the 104th and 105th episodes of the American Broadcasting Company's Lost, marking the premiere of the sixth and final season. It was written by show runners/executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse and directed by executive producer Jack Bender. Both parts were aired on February 2, 2010, on ABC in the United States and CTV in Canada, and on February 4, 2010, on RTÉ Two in Ireland.
The story deals with the aftermath of the detonation of the hydrogen bomb at the end of the previous episode, "The Incident". "LA X" introduces a new narrative device, two separate timelines, that replaces previously used devices, such as flashbacks, flash-forwards and time travel. Cuse and Lindelof have stated that the "two distinct timelines" are "equally real". Both ABC and the producers refer to these scenes as "flash sideways".
The date of first broadcast was the source of much speculation, as ABC intentionally avoided locking down a timeslot to keep options open in order to assess the threat of the upcoming Olympic Games and to better fit Lost with how other shows were performing on ABC's schedule. Scheduling was further placed in jeopardy when it was announced that the chosen night was being considered for the 2010 State of the Union Address. The season premiere was the first episode of Lost to air on a Tuesday in the United States.
"Taivas Varjele!" is a Finnish language recording by Finnish Hockey Mafia featuring Finnish sports broadcaster and television personality Antero Mertaranta. The hit recording remixing portions of his broadcast comments he made live during the Russia - Finland ice hockey game on May 13, 2011 in a song.
Anterio Mertaranta's comments came after the Finnish national ice hockey team's 19-year-old Finnish player Mikael Granlund scored the game's initial goal giving a crucial first goal to give his country an eventual 3-0 win in the game Finland-Russia in the semi-final of the 2011 IIHF World Championship hosted by Slovakia. When Granlund was behind the goal area, he managed to anchor the puck on his stick blade, lifted it off the ice, and threw the puck into the goal.
The title of the song "Taivas Varjele!" ("Good heavens") quotes the Finnish expression used by Mertaranta in response to Granlund's goal during his commentary of the game.
Finnish Hockey Mafia remixed the comments immediately adding musical sections to it. The resulting single was released after the game on Sony Music Finland and became a great hit in the Finland's Official List published by Musiikkituottajat – IFPI Finland. It went in straight at #2 on its week of release. The following week it was still in the charts at #3 before slipping to #5 in its third week of release. It was also the top downloaded track the week of its release in Finland.
