Games
Novaload (C64)
Someone at Novagen Software chose When a felon's not engaged in his employment as a demo song for Novaload, a software that plays music while something else slowly loads. It was typed in Commodore BASIC and captioned Pirates of Penzance G&S, obviously short for lyricist Gilbert and composer Sullivan.
The song was transposed up to G major, and the instrumental solos were omitted. The 3 instruments are respectively 13%, 19% and 44% pulse waves throughout. The sergeant sings accurately on voice 1 and the chorus of police improvises on all 3 voices, but the cello on voice 3 and higher strings on voice 2 play a few wrong notes. It sounds the same on every SID chip.
