Portal - GLaDOS Originally Sang Happy Birthday In The Game

[gabrielrocha]

if they said in game that Happy Birthday song had copyright and so Glados would not sing, this would totaly be an apearture way of doing things

[NerveRC]

I was always confused why she was just humming there lol

[hughknndy]

i always thought the humming was so soothing, i actually enjoyed listening to GLaDOS

[bemasaberwyn]

I hope any further Portal projects involve her

[thedoctor]

No one. ABSOLUTELY NO-ONE can voice GLaDOS besides this woman here. Also this is one of my favorite moments in Portal 2.

[lacoinfish]

“I am a golly good fellow, aren’t I” we all said in unison

[peridot]

the algorithm heard ive been singing turret opera

[justgamesin]

Happy birthday being copyrighted until the mid 2010s is still unbelievable for me

[hazeltana]

how tf someone own the happy birthday song

[HallanRus]

And in the Russian localization at this moment there was a song "Happy birthday to you", because the song "He's Jolly good fellow" is not known among the Russian-speaking population. In the fan analysis of the translation that I watched, they said that it was an adaptation, and most likely it is, because hardly anyone at Valve told the translators which song was originally planned there.

Always thought it was tied to the easter egg of the singing turrets in that same chamber

I love ellen mclain so much, shes so interactive with fans and I adore her for it

[mrsquid_]

finding out that ellen McLain also voices GLaDOS is insane, i knew her from the administrator in tf2 and therefore also sniper

[Serial.Desig-N.]

it would make sense to not sing happy birthday because no one would show up to chell's birthday

[Ridiculous_Ties]

I would imagine glados saying "But your not." After humming/singing "For hes a jolly good fellow"

[TheMaxFusionGaming]

I personally like it better with the voice effect. Equally profound and terrifying

[Flamma_Dreemurr]

I could listen to her talk abt her experience being GLaDOS all day

This game was my childhood

[thestreakingninja]

I met her once!!! She's was so nice

[gyrostabilizerKapi]

I didn't realize that it was "he's a jolly good fellow" but i was like "oh yeah that kinda sounds like happy birthday"

[mateoperez]

i love how you can hear the glados in her voice
