A London woman didn’t know what to think when a group of people on her train suddenly burst into song Tuesday. And she really didn’t know what to make of it when she realized it was her favorite song.
Lucy Rogers hurriedly told her boyfriend to take out his cell phone to film the flash singing mob coming together before her eyes, but Adam King had other plans.
As the song came to a close, she looked down and realized King was on one knee. He asked her simply, “Will you marry me?”
Shocked and elated, Rogers said yes.
It was all part of an elaborate marriage proposal plan orchestrated by King. He enlisted the show choir he sings with, the Adam Street Singers, to set the whole thing up. It went off without a hitch as the pair were en route to a friend’s house.
“She didn’t realize for an instant that it was for her,” he told ABC.
“No part of me was thinking that this might be happening,” Rogers said.

Posted on November 6, 2011 at 12:28amThese Ladies and Gents are the real Londoners, not the one’s shown during the riots in August.
Much like the current disgusting rioters shown in the US are Not, representative the good people of the US.
Quite an original marriage proposal there young man, and may God bless you, your new bride and your union.

Posted on November 5, 2011 at 5:40pmShe remembered the olds 442, more than the proposal
She remembered the balloon ride, more than the proposal
She remembered the helicopter ride to Atlanta, more than the proposal
Finally … She remembered the proposal, more than the beach sand under her feet
They’ll do just fine

Posted on November 5, 2011 at 4:56pmCome Secy, in a world where everyone seems to be upset or in the street or blocking doors, let’s enjoy a little creative time by a young man in love who actually surprised the love of his life.
Let’s not forget to smile. I have read The Book and I know how it ends; reason enough to smile…
