KidVid Tournament 2007 Semifinals: "Tricycle" (2) vs. "I Hope My Mama Says YES!" (3)
Our second semi-final for KidVid Tournament 2007 is the underdog side of the bracket -- two artists that knocked off #1 seeds. We've got a #2 seed, "Tricycle" from Frances England, going against "I Hope My Mama Says YES!" - AudraRox, the #3 seed. These are both cute videos, but for completely different reasons. Another tough call.
Vote in the comments below. Rules: Video with most votes wins. One vote per e-mail address, please. Votes due by Friday 11 PM-ish East Coast time.
[Note: As I've said before, sorry about just showing links instead of embedding the videos. I'm trying to keep the playing field relatively level here -- if I can't show both videos here (i.e., they're not both on YouTube and clearly placed there at the artists' request) I'm only going to show the links for both of 'em.]

Hi!
I hope this is the right spot to place my vote for the KidVid tournament...Both videos are great, but I really, really love "Tricycle", so that's what I'm voting for.
Thanks!

Audra is a kid magnet, & the parents love her too.

No doubt in my mind - TRICYCLE!!!
Posted by: Marian Murphy | March 30, 2007 09:28 AM
I vote for TRICYCLE because the videography is fabulous and should someday be included in the artist's retrospective at the Whitney. Oh yeah, and the music is toe-tappin' as well.

Tricycle, tricycle! It's one of my son's faves too.

we pick "hope my mam says yes"

Love both songs, but...
yea! Tricycle!

I think maybe we should recuse ourselves (or whatever the right term is) from this contest. A week ago we may have voted for tricycle, but after last weekend, my girls are huge AudraRox fans.
So if we are allowed to vote, we vote AudraRox.

Tricycle is a great song and the video is so cute! It gets my vote.

I've got an itch that can only be scratched by more Tricycle!
Posted by: Dennis M. | March 30, 2007 01:09 PM
Tricycle was the winner here, but the fact my daughter just learned to ride hers yesterday may be biasing her vote...
Posted by: IHF | March 30, 2007 01:18 PM
Going with AudraRox!

Beautiful imagery that really gets those fleeting sweet moments- especially love the last shot of the mom and son walking away

Posted by: Jackie | March 30, 2007 06:07 PM
I got a fever and the only prescription is more Tricycle!
Posted by: Dawn | March 30, 2007 07:13 PM
We have a split vote at our house: Greta says "Tricycle," and Bailey insists "I Hope My Mama Says YES!" Sigh. They're both so good!
