You know you've done something right when more than 8 million people want to see how you popped the question. Isaac Lamb, 31, proposed to Amy Frankel, 33, in what he called the "first live lip-dub proposal." What does that mean, you ask? Sixty of the couple’s friends and relatives partook in a live choreographed dance routine to Bruno Mars' "Marry You" as Frankel watched.

Turns out, even Bruno Mars himself is a fan. "Congrats to Isaac Lamb and the future Mrs ... I don’t think I could’ve made a better music video for this song. Thank you," Bruno Mars tweeted.

Lamb lured Frankel to an open car on May 23, where she was given headphones and told that Lamb wanted to play her a song. In the video, you can also see Frankel’s family and friends (who live out of town), as well as Lamb getting down on one knee, saying: “You have already given me a lifetime of happiness. Will you let me spend the rest of my life trying to give you the same? Will you marry me?"

Fans in New Zealand, Norway, Sweden and Uganda reached out to say how much they enjoyed the proposal. "It’s really powerful for me to know that they’ve responded to something that I think is really genuine," Lamb told the "Today" show's Ann Curry. “I think people see the love I have for her, the love that we all have for Amy … it’s really moving to know that it’s touched so many people’s lives." You can watch the video here.

    actually, cute AND corny. waaay better than being proposed to on a jumbotron, billboard, or skywriting, though. had i been her, i'd have said yes, and then reamed my guy a new one for not keeping in private-but that's just ME. what is it for guys' penchant for over-the-top public proposals?

    It might not be everyone's ideal, but she loved it and it was for her.
    Therefore nothing but cute.
    No one else needs to get it or like it.

    When I clicked on the video I thought, "oh, this is going to be cheesy!" as I feel most marriage proposals tend to be.. but this was adorable and wonderfully executed. Great job!

    I can't stand ANY of these public engagement proposals.

    Marriage proposals are a sacred committment and should be private. Anything else is nonsense.

    The more elaborate a proposal is, the less secure the proposer is. Man up and ask without 70,000 people watching you on a stadium camera.

    Omg, vomit inducing is more like it. I had to turn it off after a minute into his idiotic "video".

    Good luck anyway.
