** Taz can be easily calmed with music, whether by instrument or singing. [[Everything's Louder with Bagpipes|Except the bagpipes.]]
** In "[[Organ Grinder|Hurdy-Gurdy]] Hare", [[Bugs Bunny]] got a gorilla to [[Implacable Man|stop chasing him]] by playing the violin. He even calls this trope's name.
** The third ''[[Bosko the Talk Ink Kid]]'' cartoon "Congo Jazz" has Bosko do this to the tiger who was chasing him in the beginning. Once he has distracted the tiger long enough, he promptly [[Dead Baby Comedy|kicks him off of a cliff.]]
Line 60 ⟶ 61:
* The plot of the [[Tex Avery]]-directed [[Chilly Willy]] cartoon "The Legend of Rock-a-bye Point" concerns a polar bear trying to get fish from a fishing boat, getting the [[Angry Guard Dog]] off his back by putting him to sleep with a lullaby, while Chilly sabotages him at every turn.
* In the ''[[Tom and Jerry]]'' cartoon "Down Beat Bear", the titular bear ends up at Tom's house and Tom tries to call the authorities, but every time the bear hears music he starts to dance with Tom.
* In one episode of ''[[The Smurfs]]'', the Smurflings meet what seems to be a docile [[Non-Malicious Monster]] who calls itself "Beatie" who ''loves'' their music and follows them everywhere as they play it. Then, however, Grandpa does some research, and discovers that Beastie is, in fact, the legendary Savage Beast (as in, the in-universe [[Trope Namer]] of this Trope) meaning when the Smurfling's ''stop'' playing, they it won't be as docile...
