Oh. Wait. The generic “whale song” as heard on the soundtrack of Star Trek IV.

Duh.

Move right along, nothing else to see here…

I thought of the 1970 recording “Songs of the Humpback Whale”. How old is this cartoon?

Song could be just about anything. Disney had a whale singing opera
and I seem to remember a Partridge Family episode that featured a
song with Humpback Whale sounds.

I recently drove from Austin to Corpus Christi with my 4-year-old Grandson, who spent the entire 3-hour trip “talking to the whales.” I know exactly how that fish feels.
