Perfect World

"Perfect World" is the opening song in Disney's 2018 Broadway movie film, The Emperor's New Animated Broadway Movie. It is sung by Tom Jones as the Theme Song Guy.

Plot
The song is first sung at the beginning of the film where the Theme Song Guy sings about Kuzco's palace under control. The song pauses for a while when Kuzco blames Rudy for interrupting the musical number, so one of his guards expels him for doing so. The song then resumes and ends with Kuzco and his guards dancing together.

During the end of the film when Kuzco reforms and gets along with Pacha and the peasants, the Theme Song Guy sings a reprise of the song again in Kuzcotopia.
