KidVid Tournament 2008: They Might Be Giants vs. David Tobocman
Let's start off the 2nd week of KidVid Tournament 2008 with a battle for supremacy in the Leadbelly Region -- the #1 seed They Might Be Giants' "Seven Days of the Week (Never Go To Work)" (from their recently-released Here Come the 123s CD/DVD) taking on the #2 seed, David Tobocman and his track "Home" (from I Count to Ten and Other Helpful Songs, also recently released).
Go forth, watch both videos, then You. Make. The. Call. (Or, rather, vote in the comments below by 9 PM Thursday night. Vote once per family. Play nice, y'all.)
They Might Be Giants - "Seven Days of the Week (Never Go To Work)"
David Tobocman - "Home"
Comments
I'm always one to root for the underdogs, but today, I just can't help voting for the big guns in both battles. The home song is beautiful, but this isn't about the songs so much, it's about the videos- and TMBG is just more fun!

We love They Might Be Giants. I'm writing this from work (sad clown).

The one-year-old got outvoted. He liked Home, but me and four-year-old like TMBG more.

HOME is the winner!

I vote for TMBG because I love it. (Daddy's note: I've heard this song about 8 billion times, and I don't ever want to hear it again. Please vote for "Home." Please! My sanity is at stake. Thank you. End of Daddy's note)

I love the They Might Be Giants song. I've always been a fan & still am.

woah, tough match for "home". It's really, really lovely, but the TMBG one just kills me. I love it so much.
TMBG for us.

Whoops, a little late closing the voting on this, but TMBG takes it. On to the Final Four!
