    1978 single by Yes

    "Don`t Kill the Whale" is a song by the band Yes, released as a single from their 1978 album Tormato. It reached number 36 on the UK Singles Chart.[2]

    Content

    The song, as with most of the album`s tracks, was short compared to the songs on Yes`s 1973 album Tales from Topographic Oceans.[3] Its style and lyrics make it "an unusually direct song for the group with its topical message", according to the band`s website.[4] However, that shift in style only helped make it a minor hit.[3]

    Personnel

    • Jon Anderson – lead vocals
    • Steve Howe – guitar
    • Rick Wakeman – polymoog, birotron
    • Chris Squire – piano, bass guitar, backing vocals
    • Alan White – drums
