hall of the mountain king by mannheim steamroller

[Polusviridisastrum]

The twilight pictures killed it for me. Thanks a lot.

[Kenya368]

@Polusviridisastrum At least you have the rest of the video. Stop being mean.

[justcruisingby]

Sick

[syngularity1988]

Why are there pictures of vampires and werewolves. The story behind this song is about trolls who live in a mountain.

[PhantomWerewolf]

if you don't like the pics, just listen to the song without watching.

BLOND... dont ever do a halloween video with CRAPLIGHT.

oh wait did you even know that THE CELERY STALKS AT MIDNIGHT ??

and the REAL source of CONSTIPATED VAMPIRES was BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER / ANGEL ??

this whole video fails with ANYTHING emo related ....

WHY ??

CUS bunnicula can kill any stalker/clingy/posessive bf vampire

[TGS556]

@jaganar1

I love Bunnicula!!!

[djscribes]

I love this version of Hall of the mountain king. Who cares about twilight its for little girls... don't hate

[MetalLeg73]

Does this make anyone else think of Runescape? XD

[FTS57]

check out 0:06-7 and 1:56-2:05 for something truly scary.

Me: Ah!!! Run for your lives its the worst series ever created by man kind! (Fucking Twilight!)

[gto66solstice08]

The Steamroller has replaced "Nightmare Before..." as the music I play Halloween night in my "Graveyard of Ghouls"!

[toadlyossum]

As a Mannheim Steamroller fan going back to 1976, I thought this was a great video. It IS from a Halloween CD, after all.

[ZPHdude87]

sounds like video game music... :/

[TheBlueJae]

Why ruin a perfectly good song with Twilight? *sighs* Bram Stoker would turn over in his grave if he knew vampires sparkled these days...

[Bluedeanie]

@TheBlueJae I hate twilight as much as the next person with more than twelve braincells, but why would Bram Stoker give a shit?

[Bluedeanie]

@TheBlueJae I hate twilight as much as the next person with more than twelve braincells, but why would Bram Stoker give a shit?

[horrorshow20000]

@Bluedeanie He probably won't, but because of the unfortunate great publicity of "Twilight", being loosely based on "Dracula" and so on, he probably won't like the way "Twilight" derived from "Dracula", sort of giving it a bad name on vampire stories. I hope this is clear.

[SuicidalSweetheart77]

@TheBlueJae Take comfort. Someday Bella Lugosi will come back and destroy them all.

[TarotDona]

this made me lol...

I've always associated In The Hall of The Mountain King as a christmas song like a piece of the Nutcracker.

[horrorshow20000]

@TarotDona Well, it does sound similar to Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies. There is also a song like this that also sounds like it is from the Nutcracker, I think it is either Toccata and Fugue in D Minor (by Bach) or Dance of the Macabre (Camille Saint-Saens). Dance of the Macabre also vaguely sounds like Carol of the Bells (the popular Christmas tune), but only a little bit.

[horrorshow20000]

@TarotDona I deleted my response, but I apologize for my latest response to your comment. I forgot I already responded to it, so yeah, sorry about that.

[suze816]

Nice video but.....left out sexy Josef and Mick from CBS's Moonlight - vampire series.

And no one from HBO's True Blood.

[jimmyb227]

Happy Halloween, everyone! I agree with Kaisha's "Twilight" comment, but other than that, I love this video! Have a great day, all!

[mathman4611]

two metal bands did a cover of this song back in the 80s helloween and savatage

[pitzombie]

Don't know why,but ever since i heard they're Halloween stuff,its stuck on me :)

[Ultravioletgurl]

Hey I have a CD with this song and its one of my faves!!

[Kaishakunut]

Damn twilight....Invading everything.

[blondeS0727]

its vampires, so it fits in with the halloween theme

[Kaishakunut]

@blondeS0727

meh....What about Blade? Or The Underworld Gang?

[blondeS0727]

i like those movies better, but my sister made the video & she doesnt have pictures from either movie

[Kaishakunut]

@blondeS0727

Understandable. Either or, it's still pretty cool! I only wish Manheim Steamroller left in the lyrics!

" ICE TO YOUR BLOOD, FRIENDS!! "

[blondeS0727]

is there lyrics in the song hall of the mountain king? i've only heard this version of the song

[Kaishakunut]

@blondeS0727 Yep! It was originally composed for play peer gynt back in 1876, I believe. The English Lyrics translate into something like.... Slay him! The Christian's son has bewitched The Mountain King's fairest daughter! Slay him! Slay him! May I hack him on the fingers? May I tug him by the hair? Hu, hey, let me bite him in the haunches! Shall he be boiled into broth and bree? Shall he roast on a spit or be browned in a stewpan? Ice to your blood, friends! I could be wrong though...

[razorbackxr]

@blondeS0727 Twilight is an insult to true (historical/mythical) vampires. Call them vamps if you want, but there is nothing halloweeny about the characters from Twilight.

[blondeS0727]

@razorbackxr yes twilight is not normal vampires. the only vampiric thing about them is they drink blood. But I did not make this video. my sister did. I just posted it for her.

and I have a feeling that you would probably like Dan Bergstein. He doesn't like twilight either. he has a series called "blogging twilight" that you might like.

[razorbackxr]

@blondeS0727 Actually, as much as I criticize them, I can't stand people who actively mock the books. Despite everything else, they are a great example of teen literature.

[cowboyup2000]

@razorbackxr and they can't be out in daylight...

[MrMikeMETALHEAD]

@Kaishakunut I agree with him though. Its so ridiculous.

[schwebbo]

@Kaishakunut Damn Facebook ;D it's even worse and it's getting your life on the internet like you're a exhibitionist

[Kaishakunut]

@schwebbo Well, that is true....but I'll tolerate facebook stupid due to family connections.

[Unicornoftheforest]

I like your use of Buffy the Vampire Slayer pictures ^^

[blondeS0727]

actually my sister made it & she likes Buffy & Angel

[Planetude1]

Great job! It really puts me in the Halloween spirit. And as always, Mannheim Steamroller shines!

[blondeS0727]

yeah, she kinda does lol

[RippedWhetheredStar]

In your picture of Bella, she's starting to look like the actress who played Ms. Lovett in Sweeny Todd.
