I remember way back when...
I had the Daisy Bell software on my amiga, the software sang the Daisy Bell lyrics using translator.device, and played to some extent the melody by terrorizing trackdisk.device (floppy 0).
Does anyone still have this?
1: May I have it (adf or lha)
2: Can you do a youtube of it??
At work we were looking at computer speech today, and it would be soo cool to show this little 80/90s gem in relations to what we do today.
Harry Dacre wrote in 1892:
There is a flower within my heart
Daisy, Daisy
Planted one day by a glancing dart
Planted by Daisy Bell
Whether she loves me or loves me not
Sometimes it's hard to tell
But there are those that would share the lot
Of beautiful Daisy Bell
Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do
I'm half crazy all for the love of you
It won't be a stylish marriage
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two
We will go 'tandem' as man and wife
Daisy, Daisy
Wheeling away down the road of life
I and my Daisy Bell
When the nights dark, we can both despise
Policemen and lamps as well
There are bright lights in the dazzling eyes
Of beautiful Daisy Bell
