Inspired to watch this again by a conversation with Dan, I remembered just how much I loved this musical as a child. This song, especially. Whenever it would play I would clumsily waltz by myself, my arms around an invisible Yul Brynner.
This musical means a lot to me and this song does too. If you watch, you’ll want to smile and dance along. Even the instrumental part without any lyrics at all is moving and wonderful.
Shall we dance?

I was once in the chorus of a production of ‘The King and I’. When the actors performed this scene, backstage fell silent in reverence. We would all cease to chatter and listen to the song through the speakers.
Such a great movie. Thanks for sharing!
