- HOLY SHIT, Thank you all SO MUCH for now 690,000+ views. Nice
UPDATE: Well, it reached 1 mil views. Between everything I have going on right now in life, I want to get to work on a sequel to this video, compiling every version I can find. But my life is already stacked, so I can only get to it when I have the time.
This is something I would never have imagined would happen to one of my videos.
So much love for all of you!!!
I thought for 100k views I would finally make a thumbnail for this video instead of using the automatic one, just to celebrate.
This is a compilation of how Diggy Diggy hole became what we know today.
All Videos are linked below
I DO NOT own any of them, this is a compilation series only.

The sequel to this video will begin production soon, I didn't realize how fast this video would hit 1 mil. Between my full time job and sleep, I don't have too much time to work on it. But I will begin making the video soon. And yes, I will include the Dance Remix and the Longest Johns cover in the updated one.
Because so many people are saying it, I am not adding the Diggy Diggy Hole Danve remix.
Due to the music video will prob get the video age restricted and I don't want that on a video when the bulk of it is just normal sfw songs showing the evolution of a meme.
If you want to see the Dance Remix, here is the link:

Fair enough
Though adding it would make it complete...
It is not a meme, it is a legend.
You can't forget stabby stabby souls by literallyNoOne
why did know one tell me about this what am i even paying you people for
From a joke, to a meme, to a power metal song. The internet is weird.
indeed
truly
This is the true power of the Internet! Rejoice in its glory!
When you truly understand Power Metal, you realise that this is merely a logical progression...
@@MajesticDemonLord Some of more cynical would say that its more of metal bands running out of ideas, but yeah this song begged for metal cover, but i still like the animation version and the the first version aint bad at all.
I wonder if Simon realizes the cultural impact he's had from that quick joke
He does and apparently they love the Wind Rose cover.
I mean if I had to guess it was Simon also who wrote the lyrics for the actual finished song also. So yes he knows.
@@Naesil89 Also sang the lead vocals.
Bro inspired a power metal band to cover it which is crazy
He knows that that's his only legacy lol
"What's your favorite kind of music?"
"Bardcore"
"You mean hardcore?"
"Nope"

Same
@@russellmiller5457 I just went through this exact process.
Same
And here I am trying to convince some1 that this sing has other origins the deep rocks
I grew up with the 1st 3 iterations of diggy diggy hole. The power metal version was unknown to me until last month and i laughed my ass off seeing it become a legit metal song

So like the dwarves to take a song that was meant to mock them and turn it into an anthem about how absolutely epic they are.
Bassically waht happened with americans and Yankee doodle.
Yup
@@Oscar-j6b indeed. There are other examples, but the two do stand out.
Pretty much americans
So basically what everyone does when England makes a song about them?
"We need a song, something funny, light hearted. And up beat."
Well, that went kind of sideways...
Well, upbeat's still there.
@@citrus.ailuri It's also still funny and light-hearted TBH.
I think maybe Audun meant to highlight how this epic song started out as a simple joke in a minecraft video.
@@wokejesus You have a point. Still pretty amazing just how much it's evolved over time
Now that we have the dance remix of the meter version it's gone full circle
It’s still light-hearted, for a dwarf.
The fact that wind rose used the yogcast vocals as back up is amazing they really did care about this masterpiece
The beauty of the internet: turning a small snippet of a bunch of friends making a joke song into a meme then into a fucking metal song.
This song inspired a part of my D&D campaign with a mining town where the dwarves were renowned for their singing voices as music kept them in tempo for their work (my character's people) and you don't realize how much you need a dwarf bard until you have to play without one. May the character afterlife welcome L'orella Songstone with raised voices and lots of mead!
Me and my party are currently toying with the idea of making an entire metal band of dwarf bards. Their axes/pickaxes double as their guitars. And the drummer drums with battle hammers.
How about a dwarf that sings sea shanties?
@@dennyzeroco9452 that could be cool, if it weren't for the fact that most dwarves live in landlocked regions and are as buoyant as cannonballs
Damn that's such a good character idea man, and great backstory!
This is actually a very logical reason for singing in the mines. That’s why Sea Shanties and Slave Music was sung. Each song was used for a specific task (such as breaching the topsails, cleaning the deck, those kinds of things)
Alternate title: *The Origin of Dwarven Metal*
Than you'd have to look back at WindRose. Those guys got a longer history than just this video.
We have a goblin metal band (Nekrogoblikon) and now a dwarf metal band (wind rose) what else? Dragon jazz?
@@murloc1696 Give it time. There will come one.
@@murloc1696 There are several troll metal bands(Finntroll, Litvintroll, Troll Bends Fir, Trollfest, Trollgasm, FolkNTroll), I think Powerwolf is werewolf metal, and countless pirate metal bands.

I sometimes throw hella crazy ragers at my house. Some years ago I nearly got fired from my own party because drunk me *really* wanted to listen to Diggy Hole. On loop. I kept sneaking off with the remote and putting it on again, think I made my poor friends listen to Diggy Hole at least 12 times that night. This still gets brought up like 5 years later.

@@rockythewolf5190 maybe its because people actually are performing music at talent shows? ever thought about that?
That is some humble background. I bet those Minecraft players never thought their small song would shine like a diamond in the rough.
Not just any minecraft players. It could be said that their series was one of "the big ones" that helped make minecraft so popular in the beginning. I remember watching the series while playing myself after I had just bought the game. Good times. :)

And now Clamavi De Profundis, one of the most renown fantasy music orchestras on UA-cam, has made their remix. What a legend.
they’re my favorite rendition of this song 10000%
The Wind Rose Version Just makes a joke song into a badass song.
They are a heavy metal band of course they will
I remember seeing they dropped this song and my only thought was "wait... the fucking yogscast song!? Does Simon know about this!?"
@@mallusaih Indeed. You can't parody Metal, for metal is self-aware of its own silliness, so a parody of Metal is just more Metal. Just look at DethKlok.
I saw Wind Rose in October. When they played this, the crowd went nuts. One of my mates said that the night had peaked. We still had Beast in Black, and Gloryhammer to get through.
@@geedub88 that had to have been an awesome show
I would just like to add some lore to the evolution of this meme/song. The guy who sang the original diggy diggy hole song in the first video used a ‘welsh’ accent. Wales is a mountainous part of the United Kingdom where historically the men would work as coal miners, so if you are British and want to impersonate a dwarf you would naturally use a ‘welsh’ accent.
And yet all D&D dwarves are Scottish
@@HistoritorJimaldus that's because scottish sounds manly and almost inaudible, scotland was also colonised by vikings... who had the first dwarf types as mountain spirits who craft and mine, basically dwarves are scottish, scandinavian and welsh in nature
For whatever reason, the Welsh accent became associated with Elves, especially Wood Elves, which may also explain why Scottish became Dwarfish.
Hellowww I'm from WAAAYYYYEEELLLLSSSSS
Correct, I can do a brilliant dwarf voice by doing a welsh accent as I’m British!
Wind rose actually said that they wanted to do the perfect dwarf song. But they soon realized that the Yogscast had beat them to it.
indeed, but I admit disneys heigh ho is not bad either, the lyrics fit very much to the typical dwarf behavior of digging for not much of a reason than digging.
@@Grimmrog oh I agree.
@Grimmrog true, but metal is so much more fitting for Dwarven culture.
Well now they have ROCK AND STONE, BROTHER!
@@sologamer3122 After all, we built this city on rock and metal.
The fact that the Wind Rose version exists is amazing.
A dumb internet song covered by a legit band.
It’s almost the other way around. Wind Rose exists because of this song
@@AdamMclardythat’s not true, they literally have music released before they did that cover lol
@papasheev5252 And yet, I've heard when they perform, people mock boo them if they leave the stage without performing this song. They are primarily known for this song alone. So he wasn't wrong. They exist because of this cover.
@@antmess9789I mean, he legitimately is wrong. There is no interpretation here. Wind rose already existed before they covered this song. Just because it made them more well known doesn't mean they wouldn't have existed if they didn't cover the song lol.
@@papasheev5252i think it is rather more correct to say it made them _what they are today._
What makes this legendary is that you know “Diggy diggy hole” was created by the elves as a means to belittle the dwarfs. But much like the colonialists with “Yankee Doodle Dandy”, the dwarfs took it and ran with it.
On a related note…Whether you shout ”Rock and Stone” ”Baruk Khazâd” or ”Khazukan Kazakit-ha” …If your a Fan of Deep Rock, Tolkien, Warhammer, WoW, etc… May all of dwarf kind unite under this timeless masterpiece of a song. And of course, our hatred of all things elf.
Also both Celebrimbor and Narvi, Legalos and Gimli, and Malekith and -Grombrindol- Snorri Whitebeard definitely sing this together.
That first one was amazing, not as polished as the others, but it created so much out of so little.
It's what I'm thinking too
Not to mention catchy. I find myself singing it without having heard it in years.
The first one was basically a fan creation done for free. The second one was the team actually having a song written, going to a studio, properly recording the song. And the last one was a professional metal band covering the song. It's like the song keeps evolving. :P
@@Chrome2105 then one day probably a religion of some sort and I would probably follow it to be real
Its like relativity theory and the fat man. Like the V-2 rocket, and the Apollo program. Like the creation of Valve, and the creation of Half-life. Its straight up history.
"Oh, history of the evolution of a great piece? Sure, I'll look."
"Wait, Minecraft is HOW OLD!?"

(I think you may know that but I'm saying it anyways lol)
I was there when it was free and it was glorious
My hubby started playing it again after a few years. It's the only game I EVER encoutered, that got more expensive with time. Now you're paying 30 bucks for the normal starter pack.
@@AvlinJavin That's surprising, there's a lot of game whose price increases with each update, especially when they are sold during beta/alpha

That metal cover was the greatest gift to come from all of this
The best part is that with each new version it is less and less a joke and more and more just an amazing song.
Now there is the Longest Johns cover which is just peak music
@@noahperkins4716 yuuuuup
Everyone's forgetting about the fact that choirs sang this to raise 400,000$ to give cows, goats, and bees to Africa.
.... some how I doubt the bees part...
Bees are important for aggriculture but are risky to handle...
And with bees you can make Honey, and Honey you use for making mead whitch truely every dwarf loves
Im gonna need a link to that. For, you know, science.
@@Fwuffy_Cuddles I know lots of people who do it as a side gig so it can't be that bad
Never do I think anyone, any generation had a song that grew up as they did. The Shadow of Israphel video came out when I was still in elementary. Then came those fan 2D and 3D animations a little while later to an official song. Funny enough, as I was entering Middle school. Now there’s a beautiful and badass metal cover released as I’m in high school... this has seriously grew up with me and many MANY others. And I love that O so much
Yo same, like exact same
Same! First elementary, then high school, now I'm in the university and realizing I have known the song for so long and that it has come such a long way is madness
I didn't grow up with the song (I was 24 back then) but it's still amazing to see a jokey song in a game to have some fun slowly evolve and become a proper metal song in the end. :D
Literally the exact same
Same dude I feel you it’s so weird to say these but Minecraft has probably impacted so many more lives then people would like to admit
I love the evolution from a little joke from a UA-camr from to a meme song to a badass animated song to a banger of a mettle song and it started with "I am a dwarf an I'm digging a hole" in a a low quality mincraft video with lower quality audio
Its genuinely crazy how this song grew up WITH ME. From young child with the terrible 3d animation of diggy diggy hole, to being a tween when yogscast made their original version to being a young adult when windrose released the power metal version.

and it still takes you to the same listings no matter what you choose
The fact it went from an upbeat line went to the breakthrough of a Dwarfen Metal Band. This is just great.
I just love the context of all this, people went to such lengths to recreate and remake a small tune that was sung about digging up some dirt and actually got it to the same status as some legendary things
As much as I love the wind rose version as it's bought a whole lot of new fans I still prefer the more orchestral animated version it's just has this melancholy vibe near the end I love
The most beautiful part about this meme *ahem* i mean, masterpiece' s evolution is that with each advancement it has a more dwarvish sound to it every iteration to it.
It's not often a song can be remade and improved upon without damaging it, but this song has truly set itself apart.
Austin Henderson exactly, they went from saying once to repeating it many times over, then they made it an 2D animation with real lyrics that people sang a-lot to. Finally we’ve got this badass metal cover where they kick it up like 20 levels of dwarvish. It’s always amazing to see people just taking one tiny thing and turning it into a “hole” new thing.

The lyrics for the proper song are actually good and flow well. thats what suprisess me the most and why I keep listening to it. Is because its genuinely a good song in its own right.
Wind rose cover acctualy sounds so good
And looks amazing
Still the original ( I mean the Diggy Diggy Hold) still the best
Worth noting that the metal community is very familiar with each other, UA-cam, and the UA-cam community. Look at Sabaton, DragonForce, and Wind Rose. They all interact heavily with UA-camrs and each other.
Yeah. Normally not a metal head (outside of Sabaton because history) but I enjoyed it.
So you mean it shouldn't be good? I mean, you literally just said it actually sounds good.
(Yes, i do not care if this was a year ago)
I remember being there when the Yogs first forged this song. We never knew how big it would be. Hail to Honeydew and Bless Blue Xephos.
I didn't know this song existed 13 minutes ago... now I absolutely love it.

One short joke spawned the most epic form of rock ever made: Dwarven Rock. Seriously, check out wind rose's other works. I personally enjoy "Drunken Dwarves".
I prefer "Wolf's Call" and "Mine! Mine! Mine!", the epicness and emotion in those two songs are... really deep;)

Upon hearing Simon start singing, someone asked how drunk he had to be. My response, "He's not drunk, he's just British".
The two later versions of Diggy Diggy Hole had me humming that tune all day and night. Turned what was a lacklustre song to begin with and made it into a theme for fantasy movies and board games involving dwarves. They gave the song more respectability in later years. Very interesting history.
The drummer was amazing on the metal cover
All the people here watched yogscast back in the day im guessing, look how far we’ve come, god dammit its enough to make a grown man cry
*Sad part of official diggy² hole plays*
*kneels down and feels the ground* this.... this is a sacred place.... treat it with the respect it deserves *cries* its as beautiful as the day i first saw it
Someone: *tries to sing something stupid as a joke
The internet: *And I made it into a power metal song*
I hate how nobody around me remembers the original animation. Everybody is talking about the 2014 song, but that one doesn't sound good to me. 2011 Dwarf Hole always has a special place in my heart. THAT one got me into Minecraft.
The fact that an actor metel band covered diggy diggy hole is amazing
When you make such a good songs that even a profesional band makes a cover of it
I've never wanted to start a new round of Dwarf Fortress so hard in my LIFE!! Thanks for compiling this. :-) I had never heard the original Minecraft stream that inspired 'diggy diggy hole' so I especially appreciate it.
Never thought that a silly song could create a new subgenre of folk metal

I just found out about this. And it is epic. I love it. This is the internet done right.
The pride the song induces increases with each edition, it's like an anthem, and I'm a midget, not a dwarf.
