A love struck Coldplay fan outshone his favourite band's frontman Chris Martin on Friday night by taking centre stage to propose to his girlfriend of three years.
Frontman Chris Martin gave up the spotlight halfway through singing 'A Sky Full of Stars' to allow the man to give an emotional speech to the love of his life in front of a full house at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne.
The nervous husband-to-be Lonardo Tanno, 31, gripped onto the microphone as he faced the woman of his dreams, Felicia Lie, 26.
'So for the past three years, thank you for your love,' he said while fighting back tears.

In the video the crowd let out a sympathetic 'aww' as happy tears trickled down the bride-to-be's face.
'Thank you for giving me a chance.'
'So in the midst of Coldplay, my new best friend Chris, and all the people here in Melbourne I just want to say I love you. 'Will you marry me?'
As Mr Tanno finished his heart-felt speech a reveler in the crow cried out 'get on your knee'.
The man listened and bent down to offer a ring to his emotional fiancé beneath a stream of confetti.
The Coldplay star added a touch of comedy to the emotionally charged proposal by telling the future groom not to take too long as 'people have to catch trains and s**t'.

Felicia Lie, 26, spoke exclusively to Daily Mail Australia just hours after her partner of three years, Lonardo Tanno, got down on one knee in front of 50,000 people at Melbourne's Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
'I was surprised - I guess it was a mixture of disbelief and happiness,' she said.
Ms Lie has loved Coldplay since she was a teenager and describes Chris Martin as her hero.
'It was amazing for me to be able to share the stage with him, it was amazing that he went beyond what he was supposed to be doing for us,' she said.
'He is definitely invited to our wedding - although I know he has a very busy schedule.'
The Indonesian couple had travelled seven hours to see the concert just to see the band play.
The couple have known each other since 2008 - when they met in America - but it took a while for their interest in each other developed.
'We realised we have the same interests and our lives and families fit together really well,' Ms Lie said.
The woman gasped as her partner revealed the ring he had bought to give her on stage

A friend of the loved-up couple was ushered off the stage after Martin realised she was not the woman about to be proposed to.
The funny front-man jokingly asked what the woman was doing on stage adding 'thanks for coming anyway' as she took her place in the crowd.
'Does anyone want to get married to this lady?' he asked before the real bride-to-be made her way to the stage to face her nervous partner.
Chris Martin was snapped in a charming photo beaming across at the showstoppers as they became engaged.
Chris Martin initially thought a friend on stage was going to be proposed to but promptly kicked her off when he realised she was the wrong woman
