So, you arrived in a poor, doomed village, filled with bandits, refugees, and giant spiders and decided that the only thing is missing is Leliana jamming to a "Like a Prayer"? I deeply respect that.
I just realized that the reason this is so damn brilliant to me is not just the obvious things (the excellent comedic timing and the use of the lines, and the rest, which are great) but the fact that this is 100% something that I think canon-DAO-Leliana would do. It suits her character perfectly. Like, yes, she would absolutely be that one odd chantry sister who climbs a windmill and performs a little dance there for the hell of it. Inquisition-Leliana would not, but DAO-Leliana definitely would. Anyway, I still love this video very much and appreciate you making it, excellent work. :D
I can't tell you what a steady source of endorphins this video has been for me! I made it over three years ago and still, every couple of weeks, I wake up to a comment like yours and it totally makes my day! Thank you
Considering that both Josephine and Leliena in Inquisition basically more or less hinted that they were a little on the wild side when they were both bards, yeah it's really not that hard to imagine. Lol
@@arkez35 In DAO at least if you romance her as a female Warden she admits to wrestling in chocolate pudding with her spy mistress/girlfriend. 'Wild' is probably an understatement.
Hawkes lose half of their family and household. Refugees are absolutely terrorized by darkspawn horror. Brigands and monsters roam the land. Leliana: DANCE PARTY
This is absolutely incredible. The comedy here is off the charts, I had to keep pausing it and going back to see what was going on in the background. This is easily the best Leliana content I've ever seen
@@SnakeEater2301 Andrastini has done some awesome mods and some stand alone dance vids... check out Alistair singing 'When the going gets tough' and Sarah cousland does a great vid too: 'Everybody - the boys of thedas are back'.
0:34 Leli sings "And it feels like home..." while man carries an injured/dead man over his should in the background. Leli acts like everything is normal. 🤣
It would be so funny if this was a mod, and the second you set foot in the Lothering Chantry, this song starts to play and Leliana just dances around the place... and the song never stops playing the entire time you're in Lothering. Whatever quest you're doing, as long as you're in Lothering, this song is playing in the back and Leliana just follows you around the town, dancing. Then when you're about to leave, she comes up to you, states she's coming with you, and that's it, no further context she's now in your party.
Yes that would absolutely be hilarious. This also shows what is revealed at the end of inquisition/trespasser and how even if leliana dies in origins that she can appear in DA2 and inquisition/tespasser (trying to nit give away any spoilers if a person hasn't already done this)
The level of execution is amazingly good. I'm even afraid to think how long lipsync had to take because it is excellent for this type of content. Even the character is perfectly suited to the voice.
So would my Warden!! She would hand Alistair her daggers and just start dancing and try to get Morrigan to join because lets have a girl band on the road! We might be killing darkspawn but why not have fun at the same time?
My warden (who is usually a very serious somewhat brooding sword and board warrior) would pause stare at her with a slightly puzzled expression. Then when the Alistair says "let's go" he'd turn his head crack a half smile toss his weapons and armor to Alistair and his shirt to Morrigan then gets down.
In the early drafts of this video, I had my Warden fully joining in with Leliana's mating dance - I hope in a parallel universe, parallel me made that video 😂
I'm so sorry to hear that you were feeling down, but I'm really touched that you left such a kind comment. You made my day :) I hope things are looking up for you soon!
My friend and I have unironically watched this everyday for the last week. The fact the 'Lothering plotline' continues to happen in the background is fucking stellar. This is gold.
It's me again, and today I'm here because Spotify threw Madonna's "Die another day" at me as I was making coffee, and for a few seconds I was very confused why that song gave me a very vivid mental image of Leliana dancing on the windmill until I put two and two together. That's what your creation has done to how my brain associates Madonna's music now. xD So, thank you, I guess? xD
This was HILARIOUS! I loved it so much!! The whole concept! Ser Bryant groaning, "Oh, again?!" The children moaning, "I wanna go home!" The Chasind and villagers backing away slowly from Leli! The priest outside, "You're scaring the children!" Then the whole bear and spider chase and battle scene in the background! So much eye candy! 💯/💯 You always make the best DA Videos, Tini!! 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️
Lothering has a dark history: During the second Orlesian invasion, the Orlesians fought a terrible battle here with the Fereldans, which got most of the Fereledns killed. During the fifth Blight, after the battle of Ostagar, the Darkspawns massacred most of its remaining population or turned them into horrible creatures tainted by the Blight... ... and yet, the biggest tragedy that happened to it was the arrival of a read-headed bard, who was obsessed with singing and shoes.
I wish this was a mod where once you entered the church in Lothering this video would play and it'd complete the quests there and have leliana recruited
WOW!!!! Whoever created this mastepiece,deserves all the praise for real! Can't believe how realistic it is.. Liked and subbed ofc. PS. Leliana dancing while the bear is hunting the party and then the spider,ahahaha,AMAZING!! XD
@@alondraabarca9788 Back at camp.... Sten: {humming while bobbing his head from side to side as he does maintenance on his sword} Warden: What's that I hear you humming? Sten: I-I was not humming! I was just grunting from exertion. Warden: That sounded a lot like a song. Are you sure you weren't humming? Sten: Must you always dig into such trivial matters? We must prepare to deal with the Blight! I thought a Grey Warden would understand something like that. Warden: Okay, okay. Whatever you say, Sten. {walks away} Sten: {goes back to his sword}.......when you call my name, da-da-da-da.......
Thedas was saved by lelianas singing and dancing forcing the darkspawn to run from denerim back to their underground layers to learn how to pull her moves (y)
Awesome!! I loved the comments of everyone else, Morrigans "I Feel something Unnatural" was one of the best. It really pin points how crazy Leliana is.
Me and my friend actively go out of our way to watch this video a lot And it's surprisingly been 2 weeks. She just quietly goes: can we watch the video... please By the end, she was jamming out with Leliana full-on dancing - this has easily become one of my favourite videos lmfao
The real reason Veilguard has taken so long to develop is because when this video was released Bioware realised they needed to scrap everything and start over to even get close to this perfection
That is a mod. But comparing with Inquisition, yes, the Warden has better choices (even when Inquisition has better graphics, but really, those haircuts).
So, you arrived in a poor, doomed village, filled with bandits, refugees, and giant spiders and decided that the only thing is missing is Leliana jamming to a "Like a Prayer"?
I deeply respect that.
I see Varric embellished some parts about the warden‘s story as well

I wish I could like this comment twice.
Btw... your profile pic is awesome. Always nice to see another fallout fan. 😁
@@melissagarrett9719
Thanks, appreciate it! Keep that energy of yours! :)
Lol what makes this more hilarious; he wasn't even there
I put out varric when i had the chance hes soooo weak lmao
This is disturbingly well made
Exceptionally well made! Me scared too!
Its not been made its live footage. She actully did this
I wish this was really in the dragon age origin game
Right?? Unfortunately, I love it
This is cannon how Leliana was recruited to Wardens party.
Agreed 👍😂🤣
Yup
Leliana have insta relationship and +200 aprov xD!
Just how I remember it. Fun fact If you recruit sten before this he does some popping and locking in he background
Should be most def.

So this is how Leliana carried out her duties as a Bard. Truly a master spy.
It's even better when you realise she's dancing and singing a cappella and the music is just in Lelianas head.
lmao that made me laugh even harder 😂😂😂
yep it's like those no music videos where you can only hear footsteps and some whispers
Actually, IS it all in her head? Notice the background. People start covering their ears the moment the music hits, before she starts singing.
It's not in her head, the Maker provides her with the music.
This is why the maker abandoned us.
Every day we stray further from the Maker's Light.
he knew this would eventually happen... that arsehole.
@@Andrastini AHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAH
@@Andrastini could be worse could just have all female sing sailor moon intro actually that would be to epic
@@robert23456789 I like the way your mind works!
I cracked when she sang "I hear your voice" to the mute warden
her teleporting all over the map while those dang lothering spiders chased them was truly hilarious
Why can I definitely see Leliana doing this though
ME TOO
Definitely, makes it even better!
Considering that both Josephine and Leliena in Inquisition basically more or less hinted that they were a little on the wild side when they were both bards, yeah it's really not that hard to imagine. Lol
Totally
@@arkez35 In DAO at least if you romance her as a female Warden she admits to wrestling in chocolate pudding with her spy mistress/girlfriend. 'Wild' is probably an understatement.
This deleted scene of Liliana's introduction to the warden was way better than what they gave us :P
This is what makes 2020 bearable
Dont you mean
*BEAR*-able?
@@usaku9851 not really, you saw them running from bears
You don't get it, do ya?
It seems Leliana is the only one in Lothering who's having fun.
Shes trying to make the best out of this dark-times.
What about the darkspawns ?
Bethany would want to join lol
Hawkes lose half of their family and household.
Refugees are absolutely terrorized by darkspawn horror.
Brigands and monsters roam the land.
Leliana: DANCE PARTY
This is so good that makes me wish for a Dragon Age: Origins: The Musical.
Darn now I want it too!
@@shaddieize Can't way to see Morrigan performing "I Put a Spell on You"
@@SparkOfElune Also , Voodoo Child with her Grey Warden (Alistair) doll that you had gave to her as gift.
@@SparkOfElune Nina Simone's version would suit Morrigan really well
@@SparkOfEluneYes!
I don’t know why this was recommended but thank you algorithm you made my day so much better.
Oh man yes, after two years of you posting this I'm here with the same sentiment, lol
I say the same
I say the same
This is absolutely incredible. The comedy here is off the charts, I had to keep pausing it and going back to see what was going on in the background. This is easily the best Leliana content I've ever seen
Ysabela Golden Let’s not discount there’s some damn fine crazy choreography going on here too. Scary talented.

Her dance is killing me!
"Please you're scaring the children!" I'll say.
SCARING THE LITTLE GIRL!?

So Lothering has been taken by a music demon.
I love this.

Omg i love it😙😂please more
is this a Mod ?? or a real part of a Quest .. ? (dancing leliana )
@@SnakeEater2301 it's a mod... but, damn... I'd love to see Liliana dance like this in origins, lol
@@SnakeEater2301 Andrastini has done some awesome mods and some stand alone dance vids... check out Alistair singing 'When the going gets tough' and Sarah cousland does a great vid too: 'Everybody - the boys of thedas are back'.
I agree
Ser Bryant: *music starts* Again?
Again? What does he mean again? Is this something that occurs once a week!?
Every day like clockwork :)
That is the moment the warden was like “yes I want her on my team as a companion!”
I freaking love the “please you’re scaring the children”
NOT IN FRONT OF THE CHILDREN!
I howled at that line! Absolutely hilarious! 10 out of 10!
I think he says "you're scaring the children"
This is an homage to every kid who ever daydream-danced to this song, alone and carefree in their bedroom. Oh Leliana, you adorable crazy woman.
0:34 Leli sings "And it feels like home..." while man carries an injured/dead man over his should in the background. Leli acts like everything is normal. 🤣
And "like a child" with an actual elven child 🤣. We need a version of this with Divine Leliana or Cassandra in DAI. Thanks!
"I'm not dead yet!"
You're not foolin' anyone.
Don't worry. His husband had one too many drinks, is all.
It would be so funny if this was a mod, and the second you set foot in the Lothering Chantry, this song starts to play and Leliana just dances around the place... and the song never stops playing the entire time you're in Lothering. Whatever quest you're doing, as long as you're in Lothering, this song is playing in the back and Leliana just follows you around the town, dancing. Then when you're about to leave, she comes up to you, states she's coming with you, and that's it, no further context she's now in your party.
I love this idea so much, that must be hilarious
I would love that Mod
I would commit sacrilege just to get rid of her, and even then she cannot die and comes back to dance again.
Truly -cursed- blessed.
Yes that would absolutely be hilarious. This also shows what is revealed at the end of inquisition/trespasser and how even if leliana dies in origins that she can appear in DA2 and inquisition/tespasser (trying to nit give away any spoilers if a person hasn't already done this)
This is now the canon depiction of Leliana joining Team Warden.
The level of execution is amazingly good. I'm even afraid to think how long lipsync had to take because it is excellent for this type of content. Even the character is perfectly suited to the voice.
Thank you so much! I love doing the lipsync part. It feels like teaching the character the lyrics and is always a little magical :)
0:41 alister: is she crazy. Warden shrugs. Who knows.😂
I find myself coming back to this more often than I'd like to admit.
Part of me expected when she said “let the choir sing” like a bunch of spirits would show up singing as backup but only she could see them lol
Yeah right, I would have loved some sloth demons and the like gliding around in the background. 😂
I like how thoroughly everyone else is trying to ignore her, like they're avoiding the drunkest person at a party.
Not gonna lie: my Warden would've been dancing right alongside Leliana. Morrigan and Alistair would've likely regretted their life choices.
I love your life choices for your Warden XD.
So would my Warden!! She would hand Alistair her daggers and just start dancing and try to get Morrigan to join because lets have a girl band on the road! We might be killing darkspawn but why not have fun at the same time?
My warden (who is usually a very serious somewhat brooding sword and board warrior) would pause stare at her with a slightly puzzled expression. Then when the Alistair says "let's go" he'd turn his head crack a half smile toss his weapons and armor to Alistair and his shirt to Morrigan then gets down.
My mage would be laughing his butt off
Morrigan disapproves
there is something so beautiful and deeply nostalgic about this video
This satisfies such a deep part of my nerdy fandom fantasy I didn’t know existed anymore.
My Warden would be entranced by this and fall for Leliana sooner
In the early drafts of this video, I had my Warden fully joining in with Leliana's mating dance - I hope in a parallel universe, parallel me made that video 😂
I love this so much. Madonna’s voice suits her so much! 😆
So funny had me laughing and smiling all the way through. The flying spiders in the background made me ugly laugh, brilliant.
This video calls me back whenever I feel down, it's an artefact with powerful effects
I'm so sorry to hear that you were feeling down, but I'm really touched that you left such a kind comment. You made my day :) I hope things are looking up for you soon!
This is still my favourite video on RUclips.
Yeah the only thing missing would be Leliana dancing next to Stens cage with his natural stoic charm
Wonderful job 👏 😂
I am pretty sure Sten would join the dance party if it helped to dance duel the Archdemon to death. This guy is truly full of surprises.
My friend and I have unironically watched this everyday for the last week.
The fact the 'Lothering plotline' continues to happen in the background is fucking stellar. This is gold.
Doctor: You only have 5 min and 23 sec to live
Me: -watches this video-

Whenever Madonna comes on the radio I think "oh that's for me. Specifically for me." 😂
Well no wonder why Leliana and Hawke didn't talked much is she was like this.

BEST. BARD. EVER.
I love the spiders running in the background, I almost fal out of my chair!
This should be Leliana's official music video!
I want you to know I watch this at least once a week for a pick me up. Thanks for creating such perfection.
I am so so glad that this give you a little bit of joy
Petition to have this included in the Origins remaster.

Finally some Leliana appreciation in 2020
YO SHE DOES PULL OFF MADONNA REAL GOOD.thats MY spymaster
2020 has been saved
Okay, this deserves to go viral. I’ve never even played Dragon Age and I hate Madonna and I was still cracking up. 😂🤣
That spider flying in the background killed me xD

How does this not have like a million views?
Three years later and I still return to this video right before a dnd game,
Can we just appreciate for a moment, that in Dragon Age: Origins, how good looking you could make your Warden! :D
I'm assuming that's a mod, but you're right. It's Skyrim'esque
That is a mod. But comparing with Inquisition, yes, the Warden has better choices (even when Inquisition has better graphics, but really, those haircuts).
Mod but ok
and the game is from 2009
I can fully picture Lilliana doing this at the council meeting in the Trespasser DLC, you're off fighting Qunari and Lilliana is dancing in her room

The "ugh, again" comment had me *ROLLING*
Damn, I'd have never attacked Thedas if I knew such marvels existed!
My mouth was agape the entire time. I've never seen something so incredible.
