Thanks for your kind words. It's been a hard road with Starcraft. It could have been a lot easier if we started with something like League or Dota or even Minecraft. We're thinking of branching out into other more popular games. Would love to be able to make a living out of this...So for now it's just a matter of biding our time and staying passionate :)
I was thinking about it the other day, and actually, it would be better if it was about DotA, because you see, in DotA you control a hero, and in Starcraft you can't... I mean, the complexity is... My point is that...🖕🖕🏃
Starcraft just isn't as popular as some of the other games out there. Basically the more people that play the game, then the more views your content is likely to get
could you learn to sing in Korean? It's still considered a national pasttime there. Do some Kpop songs parodied for SC2 and boom-you are golden (well, more golden than VLDL already got)
It's super late game. So it goes Hatchery > Lair > Hive etc. But Blizzard introduced one more evolution which morphs it into a Kitten Nest. It's a little OP at the moment considering they attack air/ground/cloaked. But I think they'll sort the balance out.
I remember listening to this and the other parody songs while climbing the starcraft ladder and yet here it is, recommended again by the almighty algorithm 7 years later :)
It's using the map editor to get smooth camera movements and no user Interface. We use Fraps to get the footage at the highest quality. And finally we add filters over the top using Adobe Premiere.
I feel kinda happy that not many people have discovered Viva La Dirt League, your stuff are greatly appreciated and your fanbase is really loyal, keep up the good work :)
I really wish you guys can reconvene the whole band and make another song. Even just 1 would make the world so different. Gamer (especially StarCraft) community as we know is not the shiniest group of people around, and---you guys have been so positive and sunny in these performance. You really bring sunlight into the often gloomy and raging community, you know?
+Veloric Wu The raging community is surprisingly large and quite obnoxious but Starcraft is also full of nice, intelligent, fun people - just try some conversations in your 1v1s haha, easy to make lots of friends :p
The whole band? Lol I heard Rowan is the whole band. And nothing will make me unbelieve now that I heard it. All the vocals are Rowan. He literally layered it all in. I'm so impressed/amazed/in love with Rowan and his vocal talents. Lol ❤
Ah right, that is a falsetto break singing technique. It actually has a name (that I can't remember). But you'll notice it in a lot of pop songs. It's like an intentional high ball crack to transition between notes or just to add an affect. An example is Neyo "Miss Independent" at about 0:56 "Something about HER". Although it's a bit more seemless with Neyo lol
Been watching your more recent stuff and loving it, but I didn't know you had such good stuff on SC2 from back in the day. I know nobody would watch this stuff these days so I appreciate the older vids. Cheers!
I heard the actual version of this song on my work's radio today, yet this version was all i could hear in my mind. Mind you, last time I heard this version was a good 5 years ago - that's testament to quality if I do say so myself
I was planning on maybe ripping the audio from this video instead of buying it, but when I read that you quit your day job to pursue this full-time, I went ahead and bought your album on bandcamp :) Keep up the fucking awesome work guys!
Personally I think removing it completely would be over the top. They just need to nerf the catnip upgrade a bit. Remember after it wears off they do go into 'Cat Nap' mode which slows them down considerably.
Just found you. Your work is wonderful. Good music and your voices are excellent. Thank you. Keep up the good work. PS I'm not a gamer but I follow your song well.
The "I'm frowning, frowning, frowning" part made me laugh and really got me into the video. Another job well done. I am always excited when you guys release a new video.
Rowan is really a good singer ! I love The Viva! You're have many type of video and they are all good you are really doing good work!(sorry for my english)
+Brock Watson Well... I suppose the game costs right? xD that's what he is probably asking. ( I stopped playing MM on SC cuz of LotV , mainly playing arcade now)
Awesome as always, but particularly awesome for the CAT chasing the Overseer at 2:30, and the greenscreen shots at the end! Sweet song + Starcraft II + cats = even more delightful than ever!
I love all of the VLDL songs. I feel like Rowan and Alan are like so smart for all the hard work they put in back then. Now we have Ben in Loot Lust but I am gonna need a music video that includes Adam and Ben together. Lmao ❤😂
Hrmmmm no mistakes are being covered up lol. Is it because I'm not mouthing "shouting". Does it sound or does it *look* like something else is being said?
Keep going like that guys! You are the best! You are my favorite group and I always wait for your awesome videos! I love your music and this one is my favorite from now! Don't stop making videos guys! You are the best! I see you got there 45.000 views but I know you deserve like 2.000.000 on every video and MORE!!!! Keep cool guys!!
this is one of the best! How do you get so great video angels? They are amazing! great balance with ingame and outside game clips, especially enjoying the ingame!
Just quit my day job so will be working on this full time now!
You got to follow your dreams. That's more than most of get. I'm happy for you.
2.86 million subscribers and climbing. Keep it up!
Ah timeline 👍🏼
Some day you guys could really make it! Keep working hard! Maybe consider covering MMORPGs!
Best decision ever

Taylor Swift would love this 🤣
And here you are in 2022. 😁
And now you have successfully launched a 2.5mil kickstarter. You all are amazing!
these guys deserve a lot more credit and recognition
One simply cannot give these guys enough credit and recognition.
Darkvincent slayer cannot simply* :P
They are getting it now.
done took a view years
Still deserve more than 1.7m subs
I love how just when I think I've caught up to everything these guys have done, I dig up a gem that has me just floored by their talent.
this is here i started with them :) (eons ago :p)

Nah we'll always be based around Starcraft. But we will do other games from time to time :)
Always is a very long time;)
Gotta start somewhere
Now it's PUBg
That being said......give us more Starcraft content!!!
"Always"
Damn it bruh 🔥
Found this gem today.
You’ve come a long way.
Really happy for you guys.
I remember listening to this and the other parody songs while climbing the starcraft ladder and yet here it is, recommended again by the almighty algorithm 7 years later :)
Yeah that focus swing tilt makes it look like real toy miniatures aye. Kinda like thunder birds. Thanks, glad you like it :)
Imagine watching this video, 8 years later.

I agree. Alan actually suggested that after the song was already recorded. But was too late. Woulda coulda shoulda
How does this song only have half the likes and views as Chasing The Swarm? This is awesome too.
I feel kinda happy that not many people have discovered Viva La Dirt League, your stuff are greatly appreciated and your fanbase is really loyal, keep up the good work :)
:)
+Viva La Dirt League At the same time, returning to this video, how the hell has this quality content not gone viral?!
same thing am thinking howwwwwwww!?
They are still greatly appreciated, but by a crap ton more of us!
Honestly your group inspires me to be better so thank you for that

wow awesome at how well said this is and how much i agree with it
they are back !

I love it when the cat jumps to catch the overseer.
Found this today. You’ve come such a long way! Also, Never knew Rowan was such a good singer!
For years i have followed viva la dirt league, and i never knew they did music videos.
THIS VOICE.
THIS TEXT.
THIS VIDEO.
Yeah we've been very busy with our personal affairs for a few months. But I've just quit my day job and will be working on this full time now :)
I need more VLDL music parodies!!!
Generally we're around Gold lvl. I used to be plat, but started to suck when widow mines were invented and now I'm actually silver lol

Thanks man. Need to use the map editor for camera angles
who's still watching this talented model ?
I heard the actual version of this song on my work's radio today, yet this version was all i could hear in my mind.
Mind you, last time I heard this version was a good 5 years ago - that's testament to quality if I do say so myself

Ok I loved this more than I expected. Been following you guys for a while but never explored your play lists. Wow! Been hustling for a while. Cheers!

You should try some games. For Relaxation or competitive.
2024 and still a classic
Still loving this!!
Better than the original!
Agreed
We need more original videos like this in 2020
*2021
and 2022
Oh yeah you're right. I guess I just lost track of the meta game...
The video quality on this is outstanding. Seriously what amazing video editing.
I'm going back thru your archives listening to these music videos and I want more.
Sitting here in 2021 and although I love the new format/content I do miss these lol.
oh man, these were the days, i miss your music videos
been watching you guys for several years and now i get to know that you guys were into Starcraft. Guess I am a decade late for the golden days.
I still play StarCraft 2 it's still pretty active
The "I'm frowning, frowning, frowning" part made me laugh and really got me into the video. Another job well done. I am always excited when you guys release a new video.
Still a banger in 2021
Rowan you are my inspiration.
You had me at "I knew you were trouble when you warped in."
sitting here now for 1 hour and listening to it, should do homework and go sleep but this is so awsome, i dont even have words for it! love you guys.
Rowan is really a good singer ! I love The Viva! You're have many type of video and they are all good you are really doing good work!(sorry for my english)
There was clear editing but okay
Haha glad you like it mate :)
It makes the textures look amazing up close, whatever you do!
Glorious.
Glad you enjoy out stuff :)
I love you guys! Sc2 forever!!
Hahaha I love that trouble part. Almost a pun. You guys. One of the highest quality channel
Damn i found out about this hidden gem recently. You guys are awesome! Adun toridas!
It's hard being emo son
Man, this is a masterpiece. Not only the song is perfect, the video also is so damn awesome!
I only try to avoid listening to this one because the last time I did it was stuck in my head for A MONTH 🥴🤣 love this version!
I fucking love VLDL so much... I wished they were a LOT more famous :(
they did
@@richi3500 I feel so proud..
Awesome! I always sing your songs, and this will be the next! :)
So much love from Italy!
Its nice to see you guys uploading again :) its been a while.
Great video guys :D awesome to see that you still have it :) I'm sorry to hear that people have left the group. Keep up the good work :D
Holy shit!!

@@Kinstar89 same here
Love you guys for your starcraft work, I hope you won't forget about us when you branch out into more popular games!
Wasn't expecting this till nxt week. Thx for early release.
Who's here because they'd just uploaded Toulet to pologize?
Awesome video as always! I think you guys should have used the 'toss warp in / spell cast trick though! You can warp in units SO fast it's insane!!
Ahh...this is awesome! I really love your work guys! These songs should be played in live events such as wcs or dreamhack!
Omg you spent so much time and money on a computergame??
Thats why i love you guys
What do you mean money ?
+Brock Watson Well... I suppose the game costs right? xD that's what he is probably asking. ( I stopped playing MM on SC cuz of LotV , mainly playing arcade now)
Awesome as always, but particularly awesome for the CAT chasing the Overseer at 2:30, and the greenscreen shots at the end! Sweet song + Starcraft II + cats = even more delightful than ever!
Glad it made your day :) Hope your day wasn't too shit

How do you get so great video angels? They are amazing!

Remember StarCraft? I wonder what happened to the SC team actually 🤔 Love the video tho!🙂
Loved the cameo appearances of kitty

My computers being fixed. But when it's done I'll edit a goat/day9 version :)
