- This is footage from the 1966 'The Mikado' film dubbed with a high quality 1965 stereo recording of the track.
'The Mikado' which was filmed in 1966 and released in 1967 has a quite poor mono soundtrack.
Philip Potter who plays Nanki-Poo did not appear on the D'Oyly Carte album release of The Mikado as he had left the company by the time it was recorded in 1973. However he did record this song with Sir Malcolm Sargent in 1965 for the Decca album 'A Gilbert And Sullivan Spectacular'.
I have used this recording to provide a much clearer soundtrack to this clip.
In order to synchronise it, I had to make a lot of tweaks to the video to keep time with the Sargent recording.
The film misses out on the 'song of the sea' part of the song so I have have to also edit it out of the studio recording.
Let me know if you enjoy the results and if so I may repeat the experiment for other songs from 'The Mikado' film.
Came accorss this song because of the auditions scene on "The Producers" (2005).
Me too, looking for this movie.
I came here from The Producers 1968
Such a unique and beautiful voice.
Gorgeous! Remembering this opera when I was very little and singing to every one of those operas.
As well as his singing, Philip Potter's makeup was wonderful - someone has already used the word "exquisite" & it's so apt.
Philip is my Grandpa, was so lovely to come across your comment so thank you 💕
@@chloescricuttutorials5992 You're very welcome & very fortunate. Best regards to you both.
This was perfect, the tenor exquisite , I love the static staging and the costuming!
My younger brother in high school senior year, was Nanki Po.
I didn't miss anything because of your edit this was wonderful to hear philip potter and see the graceful staging.
Wonderful - great costumes
Amazing to see this after enjoying Philip Potter's singing this on a recording many years ago!!...
...Anyone notice that the "sea song" section has been cut in this shortened version of the aria??
I was waiting for it! I was in The Mikado in Jr High.

Nope
I loved the way they sang the Mikado in the movie Topsy Turvy...
Am I losing my mind? Isn't there a third part to this song, about sailors? This is the second version of this song I've watched and they are both missing that part.
Yes, Song of the Sea/Horrah For the Homeward Bound

Married with Children taught me this song
😅
Nanki-Poo by philip potter is so good，where shall I find another?
God, I wish I could sing like that...or even sing...I can't hold a tune if it has a handle
So THAT was what Mike Brady was singing!
So THAT was what Captain Blackadder was singing.
So that's what Floyd Lawson was singing.
I came here cause a new manhua said they felt like the protagonist with this song on
I can't be the only one who only heard of this cause of Zodiac.
He was obviously a cultured serial killer
Floyd the Barber brought me here.
I wonder if they could ever produce a modern update with actual Japanese actors. This is a tough one because even though it is set in Japan, it's really a thinly veiled lampoon of Victorian Britain. So Japanese people don't want to be played by white people in makeup but British people see it as their story so IDK.
No one else like this video
Are you concerned about the ad revenue?
I like the song but an octave lower would be whole lot better.
I remember Van Johnson in the role of the Minstrel on Batman 60s singing this tune strumming a mandolin.
