"We still haven't managed to learn the language of whales, but here's a blue whale who's learned English! I'm told she likes to be called Bailey. Good morning, Bailey!"
"Good morning, Jim."
"Let's start with the question on everyone's lips: whale song. What does it mean? What do you sing about?"
"We sing about our hopes and fears."
"Fears? You can be over 20 meters from head to tail. What could a blue whale fear?"
"Loneliness. We just want to be long."
