Convicted Felon serenades Judge with Adele's 'Hello' song
'Hello there, your honor': Michigan convict serenades judge in court with apology song inspired by Adele's hit single
- Brian Taylor, 21, broke out in song during his March 10 hearing in a Michigan court
- 'Hello there, your honor... I want to say I'm sorry for the things I've done,' Taylor's song began
- He went on to apologize to his mother and a robbery victim to the tune of Adele's 'Hello'
- The judge said Taylor was 'obviously talented' and gave him a sentence of up to 15 years on an unlawful imprisonment charge
Brian Taylor, 21, sang his heart out in a Michigan courtroom last week

A Michigan man caught a judge off guard last week by serenading her in court with an Adele-inspired apology song.
Darlene O'Brien, a judge at the Washtenaw County Trial Court in Ann Arbor, Michigan, was getting ready to sentence the man for unlawful imprisonment and a weapons charge when he announced he was about to break into song.
'I wrote a song,' said Brian Taylor, 21, before he began to sing his mournful tune which seemed to be based on Adele's hit single 'Hello.'

Brian Taylor, 21, appealed to a judge's power ballad sensibilities with a homemade rendition of Adele's 'Hello'
Quote:
'Hello there, your honor... I want to say I'm sorry for the things I've done,' Taylor's song began.
'I'll try and be stronger in this life I chose, but I want you to know - that door, I closed.'
'And your honor I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. To my mother I'm sorry, sorry, sorry. To the victim I'm sorry, sorry, sorry,' Taylor continued.

According to MLive, which first published video of Taylor's March 10 courtroom performance, the judge responded by saying he's 'obviously a talented young man.'
Taylor was sentenced to two years in prison for illegally carrying a concealed weapon and 18 months to 15 years for unlawful imprisonment.
The charges stemmed from an incident from November last year when, prosecutors said, Taylor participated in the armed robbery of a 23-year-old man in Ypsilanti, Michigan.
During his hearing, Taylor asked for a lenient sentence so that he could reach his goal of graduating from college before the age of 26. He said he wished to be a role model for his younger brother and take care of his mother, and become involved in his church.
Taylor was on parole at the time of the November incident and will serve additional time for parole violation.
He is due back in court on March 24 in a separate case where he will stand accused of stealing a financial transaction device.

Omg, new show idea. You have to sing well enough to avoid a sentence, Azaelia Banks could be a judge.
