So interesting thing, as silly as this song is, it actually has a lot of history to it.
Back in the early days off Minecraft and Minecraft streamers, one group, Yogscast, had a boring segment in their stream where they were just digging. One of the people had a dwarf as his skin and they asked him to sing while no one had much to say and he sang “I’m a dwarf and I’m digging a hole, diggy diggy hole.” It caused everyone to laugh and they made fun for a bit and moved on.
That group later made a whole song to accompany that bit and it was a hit in the Minecraft community. Just about everyone in the community had heard it. They later did a remix that became the the official version of the song.
Now insert Wind Rose, a dwarven metal band. They make fantasy metal music catered to dwarves, they have an entire album dedicated to J.R.R. Tolkien’s dwarves. They hear this song and like it.
Interesting tidbit, as silly as the song is, it does in fact encompass dwarven philosophy of miners at heart and soul. This is probably why Wind Rose decided to make the cover.
So now, nearly *ten years later,* this cover is released and it hits so many with nostalgia from those early days of Minecraft and the new metal take on the song causes more fantasy and metal fans to discover this weird song.
Yeah this is the internet. something start from a meme and later it become an heavy metal song.
they also revisted it and made there own music video
Name of the group is Yogcast
and the made there own vidoe to the song where they sing
funny you mention minecraft since this is a cover of a song some youtubers made after their fans got a kick out of one of them saying the chorus in one of their videos
Dude I watched the video of the take this is the ultimate song version
And they also made a "history of diggy hole" video too
Simon from Yogscast started it and it quickly turned to song. Original clip from stream is still hilarious. Never gets old.
The original song was the PEAK of Minecraft back then.
It was our childhood.
Whos going to tell him this is a cover of a funny little minecraft song made back in the day
I remember when that video got posted, years ago. Never would have thought that it would turn into this.
8:15 The songwriter is in fact Simon and Lewis from Yogscast. They first came up with it during I think a Minecraft stream. Wind Rose must've bought the rights and here we are.
There's a video about the history of the song. I was actually shocked how similar original Yogscast song to Wind Rose cover version.
They didn't buy the rights, their song is a cover and is under fair use
@@justjoe5373 Any summary search will tell you a cover does not fall under fair use. Only if it's a parody, it falls under fair use. But then it needs to adhere to strict requirements, like for example adding substantial new material to the original, changing the lyrics, etc. So no a cover is not fair use in any court (except probably in Belarus).
So either the band paid Yogscast,
Or they got permission to use/cover the song,
Or they left themselves open to a lawsuit.
@@johanwittens7712 The Yogscast were thrilled to have it covered by WindRose, not sure if or how much money changed hands, but they definitely got permission.
"it's napalm records. They don't put anything stupid out" You clearly don't know alestorm. Listen to their song "F*cked with an anchor"
or Magnetic North
@@MercenaryPen or off their latest album, Shit Boat. XD
Stupid, maybe. Awesome, definitely.
Thank you for reminding me of that beautiful soong
I've never heard of this song, so i checked it... I'm crying, this is so unbelivable, how on earth have i never heard of it before!
Definitly goes into my playlist
Thank you for this 🤌🤌🤌
The chorus is originally a quote from a Minecraft youtube video a while ago, which was turned into a song later.
It got covered quite often but this one is the ultimate cover. Who could make a better cover of a song about dwarves than, well, dwarves themselves?
They actually played this one live so fun to sing along
The entire song, not just the chorus, is a cover from the original Yogscast Minecraft song.
All the metal sub genres are awesome, pirate metal, Viking metal, dwarven metal. You can't go wrong with any of it!
you know I thought it would be Pirate Metal like Alestrom that would get me kicked off youtube.... but I get more hell due to Dwarves.... GODS help me if there is a Dwarven Viking Pirate Band... Pillaging all villages under population 73 souls... slashing at kneecaps cause its as high as they can reach.....
DAMN MY BRAIN WANDERS!!!!
@@OldSkuleNerd
WHY NOT?!?!
so... is no one else gonna talk about how much fun the drummer had on that solo? dude was glowing xD
These guys are great they are from Italy.......They have called their style Dwarf Metal.....lol.........You should try their song......Drunken Dwarf...another is ....We Were Warriors.......If you really want corny power metal try PowerWolf ........Demons are a Girls best Friend
yeah thats cute..... the Dance remix is next and I am gonna get angry letters from parents..... I can feel it lol
Wait, they're Italian!? I would not have called that. That is unexpected but cool.
I agree Powerwolf is a great band to hear. Though I might suggest Ressurection by Erection if you want corny
One muggg of mead till the morning... To much for a elf
I used to listen to the original so much so when I saw this cover I squeeled... Not even going to try and deny that. The cover is just so awesome and the fact that they do it completely seriously and with straight faces makes it even better. And your reaction to this was just priceless. I laughed so much. So thank you for that. :) With the world being shit I need all the laughs I can get.
This song really is overcharged with nostalgia and tons of good memories, it's the kind of thing that even if you where worn off on the game, you find yourself eager to jump back on just from hearing the familiar tunes.
I haven't played Minecraft in 5 years after binging the game since release 1.0 and i am installing the launcher as i write.
Such an epic song.
A windrose is the compass mark on a map. I believe they chose the name to suggest travel and adventure, which fits in with their whole Dwarven theme.
You are a terrible human being. I love it!
This song was my introduction to WindRose, and yeah, they are literally just heavy metal dwarves and they are awesome. This specific song is a cover of an old Minecraft meme song from years ago. Their original stuff is fucking great.
Good stuff. I actually saw Wind Rose supporting Glory Hammer in 2019. Also on the line up was Beast In Black. You Beasted yet? I can't remember. If not, Blind and Frozen is great. Superb singer, catchy tunes and seasoned with 80's pop.
My wife asked me the "dress fat" question over 20 years ago...my response was, "No, honey, the dress doesn't make you look fat...your fat makes you look fat. The dress is the victim here..."
I don't remember the rest of that day, but she has never asked me that question since. I consider that a net win...
I remember listening to a power metal playlist when this came on. I remember being in total shock for a few minutes. There was no way a Yogscast song was covered on a power metal album. But here we are.
The best satire is when you're not sure it's satire.
Facts
11:05 to quote the song "you can never dig to deep, this mountain will become my* tomb"
"Its Napalm Records, they don't put anything stupid out."
*Looks at Gloryhammer's music videos*
Right.
I love that he came into this thinking it was either shitty pop or vaguely pornographic only to find out that this is in fact a song about digging holes.
and alestorm
I hope you've heard the original song by now, the Yogscast one. It's a shame that a lot of people think this is a Wind Rose original.
I'm surprised that a lot of people in the comments say the original joke song was on a stream. It was in a youtube video from the Yogscast's Minecraft series Shadow of Israphel. The series started as just Simon and Lewis learning Minecraft, and then they suddenly ran into a bunch of other characters. And after a while they named the series Shadow of Israphel, after the villain of the story. The Diggy diggy hole joke was in the 46th video in the playlist, which is part 8 of Shadow of Israphel.
He was laughing his ass off and loved it
“I don’t know how the songwriter doesn’t have a Grammy”
😂😂😂😂
Was there for the origin of this song. Love the reaction as this has greatly brightened my day :)
just for the record, the correct response is 'it's not the dress'
You should react to "To Erebor" by these guys. They are amazing band
Now that I’ve seen this video, it’s time to go rewatch all of SOI for some old memories. Awesome videos!
WAS ON MY LIST TO SUGGEST TO YOU!!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!! I HOPE YOU LOVED IT!!!! (pre viewing comment)
Edit: Ok so the backstory you need is that these guys are an Italian band themed entirely after dwarves and songs inspired by Middle-earth of J.R.R. Tolkien. You should check out their song There and Back Again. It's fucking amazing.
I will if I dont get banned for doing the Dance Remix LOL HOLY CRAP MORE BARE ASSES THAN A CARDI B VIDEO
@@OldSkuleNerd he he he..... he said bare asses.... he he he.... asses
(Seriously, that was unexpected and awesome)
Well to be honest I got this joke from someone else under another video of this song but I just love it:
"We do not fear what lies beneath.
We could never dig to deep."
Last words of Balin Lord of Moria
Went from a Minecraft joke -> 3D animated music video -> 2D better animated music video -> now is a metal song.
This song always makes me smile
YOGSCAST DIGGY DIGGY HOLE
Give Windrose one more go, they are amazing
You need to watch the original of the song as well.
This cover song is sooo good!
Thank you for the great reaction! I am a big geek and I'm glad you enjoyed it (A bit of quality campy metal to brighten the day). My toddler enjoys listening to "The Dwarves" and yes, I do get the joke.
If you're looking for another suggestion:
Napalm Records - Powerwolf - Fire and Forgive
Dwarfcore baybee! Yeah, the Hi-Ho Song doesn't really cut it any more, and it was this or Sonne by Rammstein.Or Sixteen Tonnes.😂
Seriously though, you understand this song will NEVER get out of your head...
Their song: To Erebor is a fantastic song of theirs and I would highly recommend it
Their lead guitarist gives me serious beard envy, and I've been a proud beardie since '98. Oh, and they're fking awesome musicians. Should do Drunken Dwarves next.
Have you seen the latest episode (3) of Wandavision? The line "Do these earrings make me look fat?" came up in it.
I come on a bit late, and you might already have found out, but i still like to point out, the music genre is called "Symphonic Power Metal" and is probably the most positive metal rock variant.
Gloryhammer is another great band making SPM, and yes, they have their own theme, most have, Alestorm for example have a strong "Pirates and alcohol" theme for example.
Powerwolf are "christian church & and classic monsters" themed, mostly Werewolves.
But right now, Sabaton are probably the most prolific SPM band, they make songs about historical wars which innitially got them wrongfully a reputation as Nazis.
Can't help but come back and have an awful joke:
Old Skewl Nerd, this song.... He digs it XD
I will now walk myself out, apologies.
My dude, I haven't finished the video yet but, at 8:48 when you're talking about them being like the dwarves singing on their way to the mine and minecraft UA-camrs using this, I lost my shit. I'm sitting here yelling at the screen: "their whole thing is they're singing about Tolkien's dwarves and their history" and "the song is a cover of a UA-cam Minecraft meme!"... To see their serious songwriting abilities check out their song "The Returning Race" (which is obviously about them going back to the mountain to reclaim their treasure and the dangers they encounter along their journey).
Never played Minecraft. Not a gamer. Do like metal. Love this video. But it still makes me laugh. It's just such fun! And a great band too. :) It helps to watch the video on how this song evolved. Hilarious. It's a long long way from Disney's seven dwarves. :)
yes yes yes this i awsome one of my favorites s blacksmith my self
Requested from the son of a bladesmith lol
@@minotaurforge in the middel of dnde5 game so have not see in looking forword to it
@@antheaxe7340 nice me and my son who requested this will be playing 5e tonight
@@minotaurforge awesome good
choice if i could give more the 1 thum up i would
throwaway joke singing during a minecraft livestream -> fan remix of the joke/chorus singing -> official video of full song -> wind rose metal cover.
That is a simplified timeline of this song
Dont forget the Dwarves from Warhammer and also thanks to the relationship advise :D
they did a rave version of this one
it's more Viking Norse fantasy Dwarven style than medieval mainly the armour and weapons make it Norse and the fact there mining for iron the did have iron in medieval times but it was stopped being used cause it's so heavy and the symbols on the clothes are very Norse style it definitely has the colours what were in medieval times, I love this song
The Evolution of Diggy Diggy Hole a video in UA-cam has the clips which shows how Diggy Diggy Hole came to be.
Loved the reaction but I do have a couple of questions regarding what you say at 10:43 - who still uses Internet Explorer in 2021? and for the love of the internet gods why?
All the pick axes in the mine scene are on beat nice little thing I picked up which I liked even with the scene changes every hit against stone was on beat
If this just staight down was the new snow white movie.. it would be 100 timed better than what ever disney put out
Kanye:🎶 Now, I ain't sayin' she a -gold- hole digger......... But she ain't messin' with no broke.....................Dwarf.🎶
You should watch the Yogscast version of it
Deep Rock Galactic Original Theme♥
Ok so sounds like you kind of loved it :)
I did!
Returning race or Road to Earabor
it be catchy as fuck l love it
I hope your kids feel better soon.
"I dig it" - Was that intended :^)
How ironic, mention trimming the beard just before starting a Windrose video!?
I'm still playing WoW ( Took a break for a while but I'm back) After hearing this I'm gonna roll like 10 dwarves lol
I think the term you're looking for is Folk Metal.
Since I haven't seen it yet in the comments, if you want to delve further, Wind Rose (despite the John Denver-esque name) is actually quite fucking spectacular and if you want dwarf drinking songs -- and honestly if you weren't drawn in by the dwarf theme in *this* song then just begone -- this is your band.
Without the visual, I would have thought it was Pirate Metal 🤔
look at Diggy Diggy hole evolution ... it'll clear some things up
Dwarven heavy mithril
sooooooooooooooo how much did they have to pay Yogscast to release this?
German Porn ?!? You just told on yourself . LOL Great Video and Great Song!!!!!!
someone....if he likes this , make him watch the video showing how the song started...how it evolved XD
but never make fun of rock and metal music... ^^ or they hack you up with ther battle axes after the consert ...sort of like the swedish chef with unhappy customers how do you all think he keeps the meat costs down ;)
DWARVEN METAL!!!!!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥
(I am dwarf and I'm digging hole diggy diggy hole diggy diggy hole I am dwarf and I am digging hole diggy diggy hole diggy hole)
I have dungeons and dragons
You should react to We Were Warriors. Watch for the orc!
No your beard must stay for it is a beard to be proud of a true dwarvish beard
Hes 13 he gets all the jokes
A minecraft stream
turned into a fanmade memesong
turned into an actual song
turned into a metal cover
turned into a dance song?`????
Oh, and Windrose are an italian band, and they do dwarf metal...
React to other songs by them please do "drunken dwarves"
Welcome to the world of Cheese and Metal!! If you do not get some Gloryhammer in your ears, you are failing your true self :D
listen to the original song? animated and all that
It's a yogcast song
You should react to Hammerfall - Dominion 🤘🤘🤘🤘
this was a cover, the original guys made a joke song as they were playing games and it blew up.
I didn't get the joke at all, but I have a feeling it's less because I'm not in a relationship and more because I'm gay.
Becouse no matter what you answer to those questions, you will be digging your own grave XD
I love how it took you until the chorus to catch that they're singing about being dwarves... the line that caught me and makes me laugh every time is:
"Born underground, suckled from a teat of stone"... bwahahahahaha the mental imagery of dwarf babies and statues
Dwarf metal!
It's actually a great work song.
Huh. Go figure.
Amazing band to react to...just wished you'd react to something original by them. 😔
Does it sound weird but ..... why didn't they cast you. It looks you would fit right in it. You've got the right beard for it. 😉. Guess they didn't invite you because you only had steak knives and no axe.
Mmmm no I have an Axe, sword and Bow.... maybe cause I’m not Italian
Yah buddy... Minecraft? Where do ya think it came from? A memer of Minecraft made a 'lighthearted' joke song ... That took Minecraft by storm, got an initial animation ... Then got a musical amv adaptation ... And THEN GOT A METAL FINISH!!!
You have no idea...
Yup...this song was BUILT BY people who made the game popular in the 1st place. PROPS to all of 'em.
Yes, because when I saw the thumbnail for the music video being a big burly dude dressed like he's back from DnD and carrying an axe, I too thought "this is clearly a shitty pop song that sounds vaguely pornographic".
This is a cover
You know what WASNT COVERED?!? The rear ends of the dancers on the remix!!!!!!!!!
@@OldSkuleNerd They are serious. You would get "bad songwriting" if you listen to original. You would understand it even better because Simon from Yogscast came up with chorus during boring moment in Minecraft stream.
But of course you will do what muricans do: start insulting everyone's appearance.
You dare mock the song of my people
Complerely DISAGREE..... Napalm Records will put ANYTHING stupid out!!!! and we love them for it 😂😂😂
What's the problem with "why is your internet history deleted". Just make up a lie like "because of the disgusting depraved porn I watched"
