“It was a disaster, I planned it out, I planned the whole thing out,” Clooney told Barrymore.
George stated that he had planned to present the ring to Amal with the play of the song ‘Why Shouldn’t I’ by his late aunt Rosemary Clooney.
“I got the ring in the drawer and the song starts and I told her there was a lighter can you get it — we had a candle on but I blew it out so she could get the lighter,” he detailed.
“She sees the ring in the drawer and pulls it out. She says, ‘There’s a ring there,’ like somebody left a ring there years earlier… And I am like on my knee like… and now the song is playing and – we know exactly how long [the proposal]took because of the playlist.”
“She didn’t say yes till ‘Goody Goody’... but that was supposed to be later when we were dancing…She kept saying ‘Oh my God, oh my God’.”

“She said, ‘Oh yes,’ and then she said, ‘Yes,’ thank God. So I pulled it off,” Clooney concluded.
