Daisy Bell by Misc Tunes
Daisy Bell is an 1892 song by Harry Dacre, published with the familiar refrain about a bicycle built for two. More than half a century later, a computer at Bell Labs famously sang it in a 1961 speech-synthesis demonstration. That later association changed the song's atmosphere without changing its modest original shape. A cheerful parlor refrain became a small landmark in the history of machines trying to sound human. The catalog uses the broad artist bucket Misc Tunes and points to a community score titled Daisy Bell. The source reference does not establish the score's exact arrangement, instrument, or historical performance version.
