Vintage Computers Assemble to Create Christmas Symphony [Video]

From The Glasgow School of Art:

The ensemble: A collection of vintage Mac computers, a Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum + 1 and a SEGA Mega Drive perform a rendition of “Carol of the Bells” with lyrics re-written by Robert Florence & Philip Larkin in the Mackintosh Library at The Glasgow School of Art.

HAIL THE MACHINES
SWEET OLD MACHINES

BLOW OFF THE DUST
WIPE OFF THE RUST

CHRISTMAS HAS COME
JOY IS FORETOLD

FOR THOSE OF US
YOU NEVER SOLD

STILL WE ARE HERE
STILL FULL OF CHEER
JUST PLUG US IN
IT WILL BEGIN

FRIENDS US AND YOU
FRIENDS WE ARE TRUE
WE HAVE NOTHING
BETTER TO DO

BLEEP BLOOP BEEP BONG
HEAR OUR SWEET SONG

IF NONE OF OUR
CODING IS WRONG

[The Glasgow School of Art]
