Our other matchup in the Leadbelly Region for KidVid Tournament 2009 is a matchup of the #2 seed vs. the #3 seed. It's Mark Kozelek's "Bedtime Lullaby" (from the Yo Gabba Gabba! TV show) going up against Egg's video for "Night Time Party" off their debut Sunny Side Up!

Video: "Lovely, Love My Family" - The Roots. For Reals.
I can't tell you how many people visit here looking for information on the fabulous song "Lovely, Love My Family" by Philly's The Roots on the new Yo Gabba Gabba! soundtrack.
Actually, I can. It's a lot.
And so, just because I streamed "Lovely...", that wasn't enough. I also linked to a YouTube video which, unsurprisingly, was taken down.
But now you can watch on Nick Jr's own site right here. Yes, there's an ad beforehand. Oh, well... Enjoy. (And stick around, you can also see the video for the Ting Tings' cover of "Happy Birthday").
Video: "Lovely, Love My Family" - The Roots
Not satisfied with listening to "Lovely, Love My Family" by the Roots? Looking for a lo-fi version of the Noggin video that's been airing a whole bunch to amuse your desparate young'un?
Here you go....
Listen To This: "Lovely, Love My Family" - The Roots (Yo Gabba Gabba!)
Well, I've told you about the second season of Yo Gabba Gabba! -- that's going strong. And I've told you about the upcoming soundtrack, set to be released tomorrow through iTunes.
Now both are set to come together in one giant you-got-peanut-butter-in-my-chocolate sort of combination.
Because I've got an mp3 from that soundtrack for your listening pleasure that -- unlike most of the rest of the album -- is actually a Season Two track.
Trust me, even if you're all Yo Gabba Whatta?, you're going to want to hear this...There's A Party On My Stereo: Yo Gabba Gabba Album / DVD Out October 14
Hot on the heels of the this week's Season Two premiere of Yo Gabba Gabba! comes word that episodes of Season One of the show will hit DVD on October 14 (Yo Gabba Gabba!: The Dancey Dance Bunch. Really.) [Update: I got an update from the folks at Viacom. It is not a complete set, but just four shows with a MSRP of $16.99 -- "Friends," "Eat," "Dance," and "Happy." Sorry if the original vaguely worded heads-up from Viacom made me think it was a complete season set. It's not. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Hey, there's a song there...]
Yeah, yeah, I know there are some big fans of the show out there, but even cooler from my perspective is the news that October 14 will also see the iTunes release of a digital-only Yo Gabba Gabba! soundtrack.
That's right -- those of you with a desperate need to have "Party In My Tummy" available to you at a moment's notice in the car or during a particularly recalcitrant dinner experience will now be able to fill that need. For the rest of us, Mark Kozelek's great "Bedtime Lullaby" will do just fine. And because the album tracks will be available a la carte, you'll be able to pick and choose...
The full track listing after the jump.
