Your Elite Eight Matchups

After a topsy turvy round 3, the regions that Mom seeded are starting to look more like chalk. Dad's region still has two Cinderellas alive, in Stella and Lucille. (Cinderella was never considered as a possibility, by the way.)

For this week's matchups, we are including a link to the first interesting video that comes up when we Google each name. Hopefully, that can help you to decide as the matchups get tougher.

Midwest Region

8. Stella vs. 7. Lucille

"Stella" came up big, with the comedy troupe that had a show (for about half a season) on Comedy Central:



"Lucille" came back with the Kenny Rogers song, but we already posted that. We went with this one instead:



South Region

1. Parker vs. 6. Grace

"Parker" returned a few good videos ahead of this Maceo tune, but this is the song that Dad serenaded Mom with at the wedding. It's important that this blog is embarrassing to our teenage daughter, so here you go:



"Grace" came back with a real doozy:



West Region

3. Reade vs. 1. Quinn

"Reade" is the last name of an underwear model, apparently, so the first thirty or so videos that came up didn't make the cut. We eventually gave up and went with a haul video.



If Quinn turns out anything like this little boy, we will be pulling the guitars out of storage sooner than expected:



East Region

1. Phoebe vs. 2. Cecilia

"Phoebe" was unfortunately saturated with videos from television's "Friends." Dad hates that show, but really likes the name "Phoebe," so we went with the best quality Phoebe Snow video that came up. Mom and Dad both like her voice. Also, there is a poor quality video out there of her singing "Dirty Work" with Steely Dan. How cool is that?



There is a big opera singer named "Cecilia," and then there's the Simon and Garfunkel song that you were already thinking of anyway. The Pixies were a little further down the list, but they're super awesome anyway.
