"Vi sitter i Ventrilo och spelar DotA" (Swedish for "We're sitting in Ventrilo, playing DotA" and shortened to "DotA") is a song by Swedish musician Basshunter which samples a remixed version of the French song "Daddy DJ" by Daddy DJ. The lyrics, in Swedish, are about using the voice chat program Ventrilo while playing Defense of the Ancients, a fan-made game mode within Software:Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. The song incorporates samples from the game. It was released as the second single from Basshunter's second album LOL.
