This video is a cringe-fest for me. Any sort of impromptu singing in public makes extremely uncomfortable.

It's not that this felon's voice is awful, it's just so incredibly inappropriate to burst into what sounds like his own version Adele's "Hello" to a courtroom full of people, right before he's sentenced to up to 17 years. 

MLive shares that the musical apology comes from 21-year-old Brian Earl Taylor. The Belleville, Michigan man basically serenaded Washtenaw County Trial Court Judge Darlene O'Brien, and it was caught on courtroom video.

"Hello there, your honor. I want to say I'm sorry for the things I've done and 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," Taylor croons.

He was sentenced to up to 17 years in prison for unlawful imprisonment and carrying a concealed weapon.
