Amazing Flash Mob Wedding Proposals

My blog post back in March 28, 2014. highlighted some of the amazing flash mobs groups performed in various cities around the world.  I  mentioned my admiration for flash mob events. For those that are not familiar with the term "flash mob", Wikipedia defines flash mob as:

A group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and seemingly pointless act for a brief time, then quickly disperse, often for the purposes of entertainment, satire, and artistic expression. Flash mobs are organized via telecommunications, social media, or viral emails.

If you have ever witnessed a flash mob, you will there is a lot of coordinating and planning involved.  However, when it is "revealed", it is amazing! 

With my continued fascination of these groups, I found two amazing wedding proposals that took place this year. As you watch, notice the reaction of the intended recipient.  You will be amazed and at the same time guarantee to shed a few tears.

Amazing Instrumental Covers for Hello - Adele

I was intrigued by a song sang by a korean girl who attends the Seoul Music High School.  I was not familiar with the song, but little did I know that the song was a very popular song. Later, I found it was the original song was song by well known singer from Britain.

The singer, Adele Laurie Blue Adkins, also had an amazing story.  A few years after her successful second studio album in 2011, she decided to take several years off from the music tours and performances.  When she return back from her break,  she worked on her third studio album which was released in November 2015.  The album starts off with the song "Hello", which has become the most popular song after its release.

Like the girl from Korea, many singers (young and old) have posted their version of this song (see Top 5 Best Covers of Hello - Adele).  As for me, my favorite vocal is performed by Grace Lee. 

Besides the vocals, there are several that have performed the song using various instruments.  Below are my top six instrumental covers for Hello.
