Eloise and her mother shared this video about "In the Hall of the Mountain King". Thank you!
Doodle Chaos made it and says, "I synchronized the song "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg to my first line rider track drawing everything by hand. It took me over a month of my free time to create. Hope you enjoy! Also quick warning for headphone users, the song starts off quiet and gets a lot louder." |
