Yep basically we had to run backwards as fast as we could, while Byron took his clothes off. I was always worried I was gonna hit a car - DRTsorak

[@TarrisPrime]

@Viva La Dirt League 2021 and I just found out you guys made these, great job and hoping to see new ones soon!

[@Nickle_King]

You did that really well. It was impressive.

[@blakestormcrow6275]

This was only filmed because Rowan really wanted to be the lead singer in a boyband, and instead he had to settle for Playtech

[@charlescrawford9972]

OMG Byron has _literally_ been there the whole time 😭😭😭

[@Fimbu1vetr]

​@@charlescrawford9972I just noticed now as well!

[@theswampus670]

Alan looks like a moody teen, but 7 years later and Rowan looks the same.

[@angelriona]

Alan smiles too much to look moody imo. But yeah he looks like a baby here while Rowan seems like he hardly ages.

[@johnsandypoint928]

I was thinking that too haha

[@yikliangaw5045]

Too old to look older

[@MarylandFarmer.]

Nice day for not aging ain't it?

[@aratros2766]

Make it 8

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Thanks for your support :) We have no intention of stopping, a lot more music videos and even some skits in the pipeline.

[@Beaah]

9 years later, so many skits, a movie, and some D&D campaigns! But no music in years :( do more! And release them all on Spotify please🥺

[@fatcat305]

yeah it would be nice if you made one for your 5 mil sub special or smt

[@ayethe4603]

You guys did amazing on these wish there was more

[@flightsggaming]

Man, if you guys only knew back then. :)

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Hey guys. Thanks so much for your positive comments. Already! We're pretty excited about this video. Please share and upvote it on reddit :)

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

The highest we've achieved is Platinum. But these days we're a little out of practice and prolly more like silver lol

[@Jesseeluminati]

i know that bro. once i was plat too and now im silver ... that feels bad.. so bad ....

[@evran224]

Jesse Schnelle well I've only ever been bronze and I am proud of my great achievement.

I love this vid. Thanks to this vid "Battlenet", I got a job recently after being out of work for a year. (Covid made my company reduce staff) After applying for countless jobs with little or no response, I finally got an interview with a company and was super nervous. The song Battlenet was the earworm in my head just before the interview (Particularly the line "We're invincible!"), and it may sound silly, but it gave me a confidence boost. I had 4 interviews with that company going up the ladder to the big boss, and every time Battlenet was running through my head. I got the job and every time I feel like a noob, I listen to Battlenet. It really helps! Thanks guys! We're invincible!

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Thanks heaps. Fans like you are the reason we make these videos :)

[@drakejensen9062]

The greatest channel in KZbin history. Thank you Adventures 🫶

8 years have passed... Rowan looks the same.👏👏

Rowan has achieved his final form.

[@tbogames]

Another year, keep listening this great songs..

[@ernestyunardi7454]

He’s a model..

[@Toastee92]

Byron is always just trying to enjoy himself and then gets roped into VLDLs crazy antics 😂😂😂

[@EnsignLeeDS9]

I know that it's not profitable to make stuff like this anymore for VLDL, but God, it's so good

[@Nihuhuhu90]

I just found this gem today and it's still amazing

[@Keithustus]

Came here after watching Baelin’s Route. The most impressive part in these old videos is how Alan seems to successfully pull off Boris Johnson hair.

[@neikiv8843]

boris johnson hair... dude 😆

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Just over a month ago we signed up with The Game Station so we get some revenue from KZbin views, and we also have our songs for sale on Bandcamp. The idea is if we can raise enough revenue we can start producing better content more often :)

[@mrbadpersonality]

I'm guessing it all worked out? Can't wait for Baelin's Route!

You made it guys :) You deserve all this success!

[@emzy2890]

Amazing this is 10 yrs!! Rowan didnt age and alan looks really cute ❤

[@mieke0076]

Byron is such a amazing actor and singer! Rowan's voice always amazes me in these videos.

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Well that would be the dream. To do a music video with Kurt and Husky would mean we could die happy.

[@Aminmotors]

*cries* That would have been awesome

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Good to hear my man. You should get into Starcraft my friend

Lmao same

[@avikshitbasak7556]

This videos relays the evolution of alan........from the background in the past to dominating the stage with rowan and adam at present

[@kunalsingh4418]

I think alan is only at the back because the choreography is too tough for him lol 😂

[@manubishe]

Epic NPC man FTW

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Most of the Fraps footage in the music video if from the in Game Map editor when you can select UI > enable/disable UI. However if you're simply just recording a replay, you can press ctrl+w to minimise UI (user interface). It still leaves a small time bar, but gets rid of most of the UI.

[@azexnewmai3607]

I discovered this in 2024 after 11years

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Yeah man. I'm glad we could bring the fun back to Starcraft for you.

[@jaydonium]

Whenever I get cheesed I imagine a guy in a suit singing this song as he destroys me. Whenever I cheese I get dressed up in a suit and sing this song as my cheese fails horribly. Oh well.

[@williamzhang5537]

+jaydonium rip u need to be pro like them

[@Matt_The_One]

I've been watching Viva La Dirt League for a while, for the videogame skits like NPC man, but I recently got back into playing Starcraft 2, and I looked up "starcraft song parodies" for the lols, and found this video. I didn't even know yall made these. This was a sick music video.

[@dianeturrel4607]

10 years now, wow! Wish I’d discovered you guys way sooner. Baby Alan, Rowan has hardly changed, Byron also looks about the same. And now we have Adam and Ben. These bits of old school viva are more or less new to me as I would’ve been in middle school when y’all started. I really wish I’d been a part of this earlier before the studio kickstarter ended. But I’m here now. Wow.

[@puzzlingcentaur]

Hello, fellow fan. I was just thinking the same, I do wish I knew about them earlier. I had already finished high school when their first video released, but I had no idea that this channel existed at all.

[@Dobbyjuliet]

How am I JUST finding out that Viva started out as music videos!? Baby Alan is DELICIOUS 😋

[@widebroadcast6812]

Right?

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Good to hear! I'm glad we have seeped into your everyday life...

[@evannibbe9375]

Interesting to see how KZbin comments have changed since it was likely that, at the time you stated this, this had looked like a reply!

[@Zakhar-gt8nz6ud1p]

Каждый вечер перед сном пересматриваю этот клип. Какие они классные!❤❤❤

Alan: You fall in my music trap, works every time

[@artierace8664]

I love this video. It's so good! Rowan's killer voice, Byron's general adorableness, baby Alan, that epic backwards shot, it's got everything.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Woah man, catchy!

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Thanks for the feedback, can you suggest how we can improve our content?

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

We're a mix between Bronze and Gold with one Platinum at the moment. Technically three of us have been in Platinum league at some point but we've never cracked Diamond.

[@neikiv8843]

BYRON!!! Happy Birthday man.

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Cheers dude. We will keep them coming!

Algo showing some serious love to your old stuff after you dropped Baelins Route. Loving it. I’ve been a follower for years, but not this long ago. Thank you YT algo gods for throwing this my way.

Holy crap! Watching this in 2019 and had to re-watch a couple times to figure out that that was Alan with long hair! 😱 Also, because the song is super catchy! How does this not have millions of views!?

[@BlueEyedSon101]

This song had by far the best editing in all the songs, you guys are amazing!

[@N00bvlog]

It's basically a strategy that requires your opponent to not prepare for it in any way, shape, or form. As they don't scout that double gas on one base (for any race), you'll get an awesome win really quickly. Cheese tastes so good.

[@m4gn0x]

Awesome Vid Guys, Thanks to you and TB for linking me here!

[@itogisch]

i like the way how you guys interract with the audience. it's not like you reply on every comment, but you do with some. which makes us fans know we're not only being read, but also appreciated :D

For the past 3 days I have joined every single game singing this song at the top of my lungs. Then proceed to sing more music parodies that ya'll made. I enjoy sarinating people with your music. Epicosity at it's finest.
