A TikTok user who goes by the username ManisherX shared a video of their marriage proposal - timed to the tune of Taylor's song Love Story - on Sunday (March 3) that was taken with the help of a fellow concertgoer.
"POV: Proposing at The Eras Tour Singapore. It's a high kneel to remember," the video captioned.
At the start of the video, a stranger seated directly behind the couple shows a note given by the man which reads: 'Please video-record me in Love Story. I am going to propose! Thank you!"
The fellow Swiftie certainly did not disappoint.
The man can be seen in the video dancing with his girlfriend, who is fully immersed in the song.
At the exact moment when the lyrics "he knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring" comes on, the man goes down on one knee with a ring.
At this point, the concert-goers in front of the couple realise what was happening and turn around to film the proposal, with some screaming in surprise.
He pops the question as the song goes: "Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone. I love you, and that's all I really know."
The woman looks at her beau in surprise with hands over her mouth, and cries tears of joy.
As the crowd around them cheers, the woman nods her head and accepts the ring.
The video ends with the caption: "Thank you for helping us to capture this special moment."
ManisherX's Love Story proposal has since gone viral, garnering 6.8 million views and over 860,000 likes at the time of writing.
Netizens flooded the comments section, sending in their heartiest congratulations while also thanking the stranger who helped to capture the precious moment.
Even though Love Story proposals have become a trend, many commented that they would never get tired of seeing them.
Others added that they were in tears seeing ManisherX's video.
Some Swifties also commented that there were other couples spotted making their Love Story proposals at Taylor's Singapore concerts.
AsiaOne has reached out to ManisherX for comment.
Double Proposal
Another couple decided to both get down on one knee and propose to each other, this time to Taylor's song Champagne Problems.
The couple's double proposal was shared on TikTok on Tuesday (March 5) by a fellow concertgoer Aloya Hamid, who was asked to help film the proposal.
"So grateful to be a part of their memory! Wishing you guys all the best in your new life," the video, which has received over 4 million views as of writing, captioned.
TikTok user Kayla, also captured the special proposal and posted the video on TikTok with the caption: "The cutest couple."
The one-minute video shows the man opening up his red ring box to propose to his girlfriend, who unexpectedly, also came prepared with a ring.
Both of them are seen overwhelmed with emotions as they exchange their rings.
At the end of the video, the man yells: "There's no champagne problems here."
Taylor performed in Singapore on March 2, 3 and 4, and will be holding another three concerts on March 7 to 9.
