Sparkles reacts to Wind Rose cover of Diggy Diggy Hole and YogCon crowd singing

[@lukethepotatoking]

I love how this song went from a 46 second joke to an epic and legendary song

[@edwardashton4549]

I realised that too something that was ment to be a gag and nothing else got turned into a remix and them an actual song

[@baseddugalle1838]

[@Liamneedham29]

I just love how you could tell Lewis at the end was so overcome with pride and emotion, without saying a word or even moving. Just his stance and expression were enough to see it clear as day. Everyone at the yogs should feel that pride for what theyve built. Lewis definitely. But its good also that Sparkles* can take pride in his contribution here, because in a big way Area 11 and Sparkles* were instrumental in building the brand that is Yogscast. That the song became the anthem it has is testament to that.

[@FriendlyKat]

11:10 Lewis looks out upon all the Yognaughts singing, reminiscing and proud of what he, and his friends, have built. There’s been hard times, amazing times, and in between, and in this moment, it’s paying off. Pure bliss. This, for me, is one of the best moments of The Yogscast/YogCon. (And it’s hard to narrow it down!) It always send chills down my spine, no matter how many times I see it, and it makes me proud to be apart of the Yogscast community. Such a spectacular moment! Definitely one of my top five favorite moments.

[@BenersantheBread]

I wasn't there for any of the WoW days. A lot of the YogPod references people would make never made sense to me back then. I didn't even really watch a lot of the other Yogscast channels even if they were doing stuff in the same server. Hell, Tekkit on the main channel was probably when I properly became a Yognau(gh)t. Even Diggy Diggy Hole was something I didn't get for a long time because it took me a long time to actually watch SoI. But that moment... It really is special despite all that.

[@brynley]

Yep. Watched it 2 days ago and still makes me cry.

[@TomMotTom]

Man I get nostalgic every time, out of all the content on youtube I’ve probably watched the entirety of the yogscast content library at least twice some things even more, I just keep going back to it. It’s like a home for me.

[@WolfhoundMercenary]

I love how his face lights up at 1:26, when the metal riffs start hitting. :D

[@spamreciever4208]

The most surprising part to me is that They didn't know about this cover, I'd've thought that Wind Rose'd have to gotten permission lmao

[@jsweizston5410]

Don't need permission to do covers of songs as long as you're not monetizing the video or selling it as an official download. There are probably billions of music covers on KZbin, this is no different.

[@VulpesChama]

@@jsweizston5410 Actually yes, you do need permission, without it can be taken down very, very easily. Copyright is a bit more complicated than "cover is okay as long as you don't want money". Especially as it is not handled the same in every country.

[@ERULINATOR]

@@VulpesChama Moreover, I SERIOUSLY doubt that Napalm records would not monetize a song. They aren't a random youtuber, they're an official recording studio that manage a few little-known bands like Sabaton, Alestorm, Gloryhammer or friggin Nightwish... My bet is that they got permission from the yogscast producer, who might or not have discussed it with the team, And if they did, the discussion probably went like - Hey there's a band that wanna cover Diggy Diggy Hole - There's a thousand bands that cover it, so what - Well, they asked for permission - Oh, cool, sure And they forgot about it 2 days later

[@Darkeklaw]

@@VulpesChama As long as you pay the rights holders you can do a cover. You don't need the artists permission unless they are the rights holder.

[@VulpesChama]

@@Darkeklaw Which is technicall what I said. But yes, that's how it goes, though you don't necessarily have to pay something, that is up to whoever is the rights holder. But without that ok, your cover could be taken down / asked to be taken down at any given moment.

[@cynicalsorcerer5509]

That moment when a meme reaches godhood.

[@somuchtocook9159]

it didn't become god it became an anthem

[@CXT14GamerMouse]

I love how sparkles reacts, like a proud father. Protective on one hand and really proud to see it grow up at the other.

[@spktr117]

This is so pure. Sparkles* should definitely be proud. So should Simon, both amazing singers.

We were in the back of the room during that and it honestly was incredible to be there in person. One of my most cherished memories :)

[@Mr_kruchten]

I was a big fan of the yogscast. I hadn’t thought of them in nearly 10 years. Then about a month ago the wind rose version of diggy diggy hole came up on a Spotify playlist and I didn’t look at the song. As soon as I heard the first few beats all the memories came flooding back and I sang my heart out on the way to work. The song I feel will be one of the most recognisable parts of the yogscast legacy.

[@mustakrakish]

It’s ok to cry, Sparkles. We all felt it too.

[@TXFDA]

Ya know, all these years later, I still really want an update to Minecraft that's all about being able to survive the game entirely underground. Now, I know it's easily possible to do. But I'm talking with NO above ground gameplay whatsoever. No going topside to get your first few trees, no going topside to get some seeds. I want an entire Dwarven Update, where there's underground meadows with trees and seeds, underground villages and such. Like, make it so I can even spawn underground from the start and never once go above ground and still do just fine. I have huge nostalgia for underground and in-mountain building. That's how my entire early days of Minecraft was. I would dig into the side of a mountain and liv there, usually digging the rest of my base down into the ground, and instead of building rooms, I'd dig out rooms. It's also how I play with my brother, because he's the same way. He much prefers digging out a world, instead of building one up.
