In a mythical Japan, Ko-Ko, a cheap tailor, has been appointed Lord High Executioner and must find someone to execute before the
arrival of the ruling Mikado. He lights upon Nanki-Poo, a strolling minstrel who loves the beautiful Yum-Yum. But Yum-Yum is also
loved by Ko-Ko, and Nanki-Poo, seeing no hope for his love, considers suicide. Ko-Ko offers to solve both their problems by
executing Nanki-Poo, and an agreement is reached whereby Ko-Ko will allow Nanki-Poo to marry Yum-Yum for one month, at the end of
which Nanki-Poo will be executed, in time for the arrival of the Mikado. But what Ko-Ko doesn't know is that Nanki-Poo is the son
of the Mikado and has run away to avoid a betrothal to an old harridan named Katisha. The arrival of the Mikado brings all the
threads of the tale together.

I love this song - I’ve seen The Mikado several times and this song is so funny.
This is Yum-Yum's aria. W.S. Gilbert would be outraged that it was given to Nanki-Poo in the movie.
true enough. but man that voice!!
But Gilbert knew nothing about movies. You would have to explain to him that in a play you can have Nani-Poo stand still and describe how he met Yum-Yum, but in a movie it makes more sense to show it happen instead of stand still talking about it.
Why is a man singing about how beautiful he is and compares his beauty to the sun and moon?
Men can be beautiful too!
(but in the context of this film, it's clearly intended to be a ballad within the context of the film, which I think is acceptable.)
