Vocals were programmed by John Kelly and Carol Lockbaum and the accompaniment was programmed by Max Mathews. In 1962, the IBM 704 became the first computer to sing, singing the song Daisy Bell. In a 1950 Disney animated short film, Donald Duck courts Daisy Duck on a tandem bicycle and sings part of the song. At one point, she was mistress of the Prince of Wales (subsequently Edward VII of the United Kingdom, 1901–10). In her lifetime, she became a vegetarian, championed women's education, and stood as a Labour (leftist/socialist) candidate. It is said that a real Daisy inspired the song: 'Daisy' the Countess of Warwick, Frances Evelyn Maynard, one of the wealthiest and most desirable English women of the period. Its success in America began when Jennie Lindsay brought down the house with it at the Atlantic Gardens on the Bowery early in 1892. Tony Pastor was the first one to sing it in the United States. That song, Daisy Bell, first became successful in a London music hall, in a performance by Katie Lawrence. His friend (the songwriter William Jerome) remarked lightly: 'It's lucky you didn't bring a bicycle built for two, otherwise you'd have to pay double duty.' Dacre was so taken with the phrase 'bicycle built for two' that he decided to use it in a song. As David Ewen writes in American Popular Songs When Dacre, an English popular composer, first came to the United States, he brought with him a bicycle, for which he was charged duty.

'Daisy Bell' was composed by Harry Dacre in 1892.
