Creepy 1961 Computer Sings DAISY (HAL'S song from 2001)!
But wait, there's MORE! Watch the entire Motormouth playlist.
This is "DAISY" as you've never heard it before. Most sci-fi fans will recognize this song as HAL'S last gasp before being deactivated in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. But few know that this was an insider joke: the first computer to "sing" this song was programmed in 1961. I've added a visual of a very creepy robot imitating human speech. PLEASE NOTE: For those calling this "fake"! This video consists of two unrelated videos (links posted below) from 2008-09. I put the two together to see what it would look/sound like. A SAD NOTE: this amazing rubber robot no longer exists. It was recycled for other use in 1993.
NOTE: since many have asked about the origin of the song, here is the Wikipedia entry:
"Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built for Two) is a popular song written in 1892 by British songwriter Harry Dacre with the well-known chorus: "Daisy, Daisy / Give me your answer, do. / I'm half crazy / all for the love of you", ending with the words "a bicycle built for two". It is the earliest song sung using computer speech synthesis by the IBM 704 in 1961, a feat which was referenced in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)."
