You said, "Come on brothers, sing with me." I arrived. I sang. I dug. Pretty easy request. This is definitely the best dwarven anthem. Dwarves dig for metal, and I'll say, I think they found it.
Back then, when we were all little shits and saw with our own eyes when the first song about digging a hole in Minecraft came out, how could we know that we would've been chosen on a later day? Chosen to hear this Masterpiece of Heavymetal?
There's a scene in one of _The Hobbit_ movies where the dwarves are in Rivendell and start singing and playing their own music because they hate elven music. Someone needs to recut that scene with this song.
That was clever AF lol good one bro cuz in my head I heard it as a GTA radio station ad those things were either madly unhinged or funny AF outta left field lol wudnt see it coming and I cud hear lazlo or some shit saying that 😂
I'm 6', but as an electrician who used to dig a lot of trenches by hand due to safety precautions, I love this song, and introduced it to my coworkers. We used to sing it while we were digging to lay pipe. We also had a parody version of Alice Merton "No Roots" we made up when we were on a wooded site that became a pain in the arse real fast. Hard to trench when you have to stop every 20 minutes to Sawzall through some tree roots.
Make it sound majestic?! It already was! This just amplified it! The best thing is thought, it’ll live on even without the Yogs and won’t become an obscure Minecraft fact.
Yes! I believe that the original meaning of a meme was basically an inside joke on the internet. Now it's just overused pictures with text. Not sure though so don't take my word on it
@@pellefrolander9158 A meme is sort of the cultural equivalent of a gene. It has a life of its own, it mutates, competes and crosses with others, disappears if it's not successful. Diggy diggy hole is a meme, but so are more fuzzy concepts such as elements of a religion.
I love how the lead singer actually LOOKS like a dwarf, they all have the hair and beards, but that guy actually has the kind of wide chest and shoulders that you'd expect from a small mountain of muscle and grit.
Heroes will never leave, because their feats will be immortalized by their actions. Legends will never disappear, because they are immortalized through their effect on others.

That sounds like a fun idea until 15 years later when someone else digs up the foundation and curses you and your spawn to the 7th generation. The thing about contractors is that they live knowing they live on borrowed time, one day someone will see the chuckle fuck they did to jury rig something and will come for them. Now you have all accepted the same fate, bound by the thread of shovel and other tools.

@@MrOllie716 it all came about during a Minecraft series these two RUclipsrs called BlueXephos (Lewis Brindley) and Honeydew (Simon Lane) made with eachother more than decade ago. The series started off with them just trying to play the game but it quickly took a turn, and discovered they weren't alone in that world. Sadly the series never got a conclusion but it's worth the watch, even just in the background. Anyway, the song we know today came from one of these episodes where the heroes had to dig for something, so Simon (I have no idea if it was scripted or not) said something like "we need something to sing while we dig..." Then, hilariously he belted out "I'M A DWARF AND I'M DIGGING A HOLE. DIGGY DIGGY HOLE, I'M DIGGING A HOLE". Absolutely hilarious and now it's spawned two proper songs that you can stream on Spotify or wherever you get your music. If you want to watch this series, just look up Shadow of Israphel, there should be a playlist that includes the initial "Survival Multiplayer" series, the "Survival island" miniseries and then the "Shadow of Israphel" series.

Like when they posted a song by Blind Guardian that was in The Dwarves video game. Awesome! EDIT: My mistake that was Nuclear Blast Records. Got confused because they're both named after bombs.
My mother requested this song at her funeral, so she got what she wanted. Probably raised some eyebrows but I wasn't going to say no. She used to hear it when I listened to a RUclips playlist while painting my models kits. She loved the drummer in particular. Thank you, after four years of digging I have to say goodbye to her but at least I've still got this song. :)
@@Luredreier there isn't much of a place to go. The basic idea of where this song originated was on an old minecraft channel called YOGCAST. I believe they are still uploading today but I haven't watched minecraft in years. In one of their videos they made a joke about digging like a dwarf or something allong those lines. They then produced a minecraft song called "Diggy Diggy Hole". Years after that release Wind Rose did a remake of the song using the same words and overall feeling of the song but made it metal. YOGCAST is just a group of content creators that made minecraft videos and were/are pretty popular.
That's how I found this version! I couldn't believe my ears, a tiny little joke in a phenomenal Minecraft series made it to the death metal station on the radio!
Robert McGuire More than just WW2, my friend. They’re cover all kinds of historic wars and battles. I recommend Sparta, The Last Stand, The Art of War, and Carolus Rex, just to name a few.
Memories of a RUclips childhood many years ago reforged by these Dwarvish masters of metal. The Yogscast must hear about this. Windrose, you've done it again. WE ARE ALL DWARVES, AND WE'RE DIGGING SOME HOLES. DIGGY DIGGY HOLES. PLENTY OF HOLES. Edit: The Yogscast have heard, and it fills my heart with glee. The Shadow of Israphel may not have officially ended, but many glorious memories will be had of it, including this gem of a song.
I was about to click on a different video when I saw this. Upon clicking my brain went "wait a moment" and quickly clicked BACK to click here to confirm that yes, it is indeed a hole in need of a diggy diggy.
i saw the episode it was born in i saw it made into a song i saw it remixed i saw it remixed again i saw it parodied i saw it come back to popularity and after all these years *this fucking song is still fire*
I know how you feel I was listening and I couldn't for the life of me remember what the song was so I'm just vibing to the music suddenly I hear "BROTHER'S OF THE MINE REJOICE!" I was so surprised by the sudden yelling in my ear and almost threw off my headphones I was like:"What the F*** Was that about?" I checked and was like:"Ah, haven't heard this in a good long while."
I got to watch them live when they did the Northern Warfront Tour in Edmonton. It was my first show ever and hearing Diggy Diggy Hole live, with the entire crowd singing along, was a life changing experience for me. This song is so good live.
for me it's just one of the Yogscast anthems. They still sing it at events during the parties. As this is just a great song to drink to and also feel conected to all the other lads and lasses.
Literally... I remember watching shadow of israphel part 8 I think it was when they were looking for old peculiars dads watchtower chest. Just a few thousand views on it when I first heard diggy diggy hole
This metal song exists because some British nerd randomly broke out into song during a Minecraft let's play like, ten years ago. THINK about that for a minute.
*video starts Me: Ok, sounds good so far... "BROTHERS OF THE MINE, REJOICE!!" Me: *falls out of chair* Odin's beard... I AM A DWARF AND I'M DIGGING A HOLE!!

Who knows what we'll find beneath?
Diamonds, rubies, gold, and more

Raised in the dark

Steel in our bones

Stuff your bellies at the feast!

Dreaming in our mountain keep

Born underground
Grown inside a rocky womb
The Earth is our cradle
The mountain shall become our tomb
Face us on the battlefield
You will meet your doom
We do not fear what lies beneath
We can never dig too deep

from a silly little song that simon made up on the spot, to a full song, to then be covered by a dwarf band. amazing
I remember listening to the og song as a kid. Listening to this gave me goosebumps. Amazing.
I love honeydew
Wait, this is the only version I know of, there's an origin story to this song? Please tell me more about Simon and them making up this song.
@@MrOllie716 it all came about during a Minecraft series these two RUclipsrs called BlueXephos (Lewis Brindley) and Honeydew (Simon Lane) made with eachother more than decade ago.
The series started off with them just trying to play the game but it quickly took a turn, and discovered they weren't alone in that world.
Sadly the series never got a conclusion but it's worth the watch, even just in the background.
Anyway, the song we know today came from one of these episodes where the heroes had to dig for something, so Simon (I have no idea if it was scripted or not) said something like "we need something to sing while we dig..." Then, hilariously he belted out "I'M A DWARF AND I'M DIGGING A HOLE. DIGGY DIGGY HOLE, I'M DIGGING A HOLE".
Absolutely hilarious and now it's spawned two proper songs that you can stream on Spotify or wherever you get your music.
If you want to watch this series, just look up Shadow of Israphel, there should be a playlist that includes the initial "Survival Multiplayer" series, the "Survival island" miniseries and then the "Shadow of Israphel" series.

When explaining how deep-rooted the gaming community is to my wife, the evolution of this song is a prime example.
Gaming history is serious business and don't let anyone say otherwise.
Do you know of any place where I may learn about that?
The real life history of gaming culture rivals even the greatest of actual game lore
@@Luredreier there isn't much of a place to go. The basic idea of where this song originated was on an old minecraft channel called YOGCAST. I believe they are still uploading today but I haven't watched minecraft in years. In one of their videos they made a joke about digging like a dwarf or something allong those lines. They then produced a minecraft song called "Diggy Diggy Hole". Years after that release Wind Rose did a remake of the song using the same words and overall feeling of the song but made it metal. YOGCAST is just a group of content creators that made minecraft videos and were/are pretty popular.
