"Taylor the Latte Boy Rebuttal" sung by Ben Hensley

Apologies to Ben, But the woman with the noisy baby thought it would be a GREAT IDEA to stand right next to the area where the cameras were. But you did a great job anyway. This is a clip from a benefit concert called "ENCORE! ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN" Encore concerts are held every year and primarily consist of Disney Cast Members and their families. EVERYONE has donated their time to this project. Including musicians, cast and crew. This year's event was held at EPCOT world showplace. The charity this year was United Arts of Central Florida. WELL DONE GUYS!!! If you want any information about the writer of this song go to www.andrewmbyrne.com

[@thewalkingmoi4727]

He sang that she ain't another version of the story lol

[@wordgaming353]

There’s a girl who comes to Starbucks, I think she has a crush on me, I can tell she has a crush on me, ‘cause it’s too big to ignore; She comes in every morning, at exactly 8.11, when the clock says 8.11, She comes walking through that door; And then one fateful morning, when she made her usual entrance, I could tell that she was nervous, and she had something to say, So I smoothly flipped the lever to prepare her double latte, and she said her name was ‘Kristin’, and I came back with ‘Hey’. And I told her ‘My name’s Taylor, and here’s a little extra foam’, When she left, I cleaned her table, and I found a folded napkin with this poem: “Taylor the latte boy, bring me java, bring me joy, oh Taylor the latte boy, I love him, I love him, I love him!” So I should have got my nerve up and just said I wasn’t interested but since she was clearly interested it all got out of hand; ‘Cause before I found her poem we had had this conversation I had told that I was playing in the village with my band When I walked in friday evening to our gig in Arthur’s basement I saw Kristin in the front row and I heard her scream my name Then my friend said, “Man she’s crazy! She’s been here since 7:30, and she told me she’s your girlfriend, and she’s really glad she came!” And then when our gig was over she followed me the whole way home. As I ran to try and lose her I composed another version of her poem: Kristin, The Stalker Chick, You’re a psycho, and you’re sick, oh, Kristin, the stalker chick, you scare me, you scare me, you scare me! I used to be the kind of guy Who never was rude or doubting but now I’ve got this lunatic freak in my life every night now at my window she’s shouting, “Taylor! The latte boy!” “Go away, I’m not your toy! Taylor the latte boy.. is calling, is calling, the police!” Many a girl has let me court her, but I’ve never needed a restraining order Kirsten, come find me now, I’m transferring to a new Starbucks, there’s 20 on each block, so good luck

[@jermy985]

Thank you

[@missarkell]

Literally just heard the original today and as someone who has worked in a coffee shop for many many years, I’ve had my fair share of overeager customers 😂 I’m just trying to do my job with a smile, everyone gets a smile

[@1SuperJule]

I just bummed the rebuttal doesn't explain the free triple latte. :P

[@AltTreeMoment]

Julia he messed up, so he had to give it to her free

[@randalllaue4042]

They work for tips...

[@tonywrestles2]

Isn't there a third one sung by a cop who took Taylor's statement?

[@Jt2REAL1]

Where?!?!?

[@JamesBerkley1]

actually it IS Lindsay, if you check the other videos in this series you will see that Laylor the Latte boy was sung earlier in this concert by Lindsay Bethea. So he is refferring to her and not Kristen Chenowith

[@mollandra.]

epic win!! the original version is one of my favorite songs, and i always thought that the "carol" chick was reeeeally stalker-ish! this song rocks and ben is great!

[@tejaswoman]

I sing it from time to time at karaoke, only if the crowd is small enough that people are going to have a moment to look up at the screen and see the words, seeing as so little of the general population is familiar. Once in a blue moon, somebody's there who knows it, and one night in downtown Dallas, it was this awesome gal who does a little ghost tour and wraps it up at the bar. Now, our KJ has a strict rule that he will not let the same song be sung twice in one night, so you can imagine my surprise when I heard the familiar 'ping!' start. Then she began singing and I realized, "OMG, she knows *_the answer song lyrics_* !!!!!!" EPIC.

[@Taraxia]

I would just be worried that Lindsey has a particular set of skills. She will find you and she will stalk you.

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

I wish I hadn't heard this song, because I thought the original was very sweet and funny, and most importantly, it seemed like Taylor genuinely liked the girl back (he paid for her coffee!). This is funny too though, but I don't think it's as well-written as the original. But I like this performance.

[@kuabci]

He did genuinely like her. This song is like lol sew funnee and stuff but it's not how Taylor would respond.

[@rebecca3w7828]

Pretty sure this is fabulous and I love it! He did a great job. Unfortunate that the noisy baby reigned over some of his solo, but it was still great (:

[@stickynote1235]

Yes. Just yes. We are singing this in choir and I saw this and I was like...yes.

[@klynnlag4294]

OMGosh!!! Too funny! I love Kristin Chenoweth's version of the song and he did a great job with his imitation of her singing. I'm pretty sure with her sense of humor, she is doubled over laughing, too. And, yes, I know the original name and songwriters are different.....lighten up and laugh along!

[@thedenv]

Klynnla G omg rite XD😂

[@syntonic1]

That is absolutely fantastic!!! Classy, well-sung, and well-written! Thanks, Ben!

[@ash4evagrl]

oh my god, i can just imagine kristin's face when she saw this! EPIC!

[@anikasatish6407]

THIS WAS 8 YEARS AGO WTF

[@angeldrawsthings7927]

THAT MAKES ME FEEL OLD AND IM NOT EVEN THAT OLD XD

[@bretthanna8411]

Now it's been 11

[@SOCKS_RABBIT]

THIS COMMENT WAS 4 YEARS AGO WTF

[@iLUVHKK]

"Lindsey, the stalker chick You're a psycho and you're sick." Haha, BEST part :) He's got great comedic timing. Really good job!

[@omegala1]

Very well done. Great musical theatre voice. Love it.

[@CathyDenovan]

As a huge "Taylor" fan this is quite simply the funniest thing I've ever watched on the You Tube. Has made my week - just brilliant.

[@rossmcl177]

Yeah. Memo to people with babies: we can actually hear them when they cry and scream. I mean, it is audible - just in case you were wondering. So, I dunno...... Maybe concerts and theatres, where hundreds of people are trying to enjoy themselves, are not the best place to take them? Just a thought. Ben, you did a great job anyway.

[@iheartdance1995]

The name of the girl depends on the name of the soloist. The girl who sang the original song at this benefit was named Lindsay.

[@sarmadasco]

I think the name, "Kristen" was not used on purpose. For many reasons, some legal, perhaps. However, that aside, was too funny. Now men singing how they don't want to be boy toys when just 20 years ago, so many men would have loved to be considered boy toys. A very fresh and inventive way of expressing the attitude of 'today's man'! Unless, of course, one was Angelina's, Brad's, Ricky's, Katy's, etc…boy toy, in which case, most wouldn't complain! Even Madonna's….and she could be many of our mothers. But she can bring it…and the goods, so a year or 2 as her boy toy, I think most would happily supplicate! Great song and comeback and done well..without being overdone! Kudos.

[@kellyhack867]

Kristen didn't write it, she just use her name in the song. Its actually Carol. Some singers who can fit the name in it do that.

[@acidpisscup]

Oh my gosh. You insert your name. For this girl it's Lindsey

[@mandadapanda834]

It’s actually carol on the sheet music

[@LucinkaJD]

I love Kristen version, but this guy is great...not only the song itself but his voice is amaizing.....

[@sherrish_]

My Choir teacher sang this at the last choir concert in october !!! (very funny!)

[@ABalletgirlinParis]

OMG this was Hilarious !!!! "you scare me you scare me you scare me" !

[@olegurl2010]

@MysteriousBlackHole The girl's part is sung by Lindsey, who sang the original Latte boy song right before Ben sang the rebuttal

[@animythfameEm]

Aww the poor girl. You have an awesome voice!!

[@amberporter8228]

The baby is my life

[@Editoria]

Love it!! Ben, thank you for making me forget about tonight's insomnia.

[@tejaswoman]

@MissusKaiba16 My guess as to why people insert their names is that Kristin did, and she appears to have worked with the authors, so one would assume they found that acceptable, at minimum, and possibly even enjoyed it. (For those who are interested, the story of the song's origin is in their Wikipedia article - just search for the song.)

[@briegiraffe]

@transcendentalmilk The original was played earlier in the concert, so they all knew what he was singing about.

[@burtongal91]

this is wicked funny! i sang "taylor the latte boy" for an audition, and this response is hilarious!! great job!

[@lautschki]

This is GRAND!!

[@sophieleathers8467]

Singing Taylor the Latte boy for choir! This made my day!!❤

[@WarriorPrncss]

OMG, I LOVE this! Great job!

[@TheBroadwaybaby101]

"I'm transferring to a new starbucks, there is 20 on each block so goooooood luck"

[@daisyld2]

Brilliant!!! Never heard the response before!!

[@Sthwicked2]

I remember that the first time I heard this, I also heard a police version, but I can't seem to find it anymore...

[@bimpadimp]

we have to sing taylor the latte boy as our women's sectional in chorus, so i enjoyed this very mukh, as i kannot stand Taylor the Latte Boy

[@caflybois]

Transcendentalmilk: this was done as part of a concert that we cast members at WDW put on each year as part of a group called ENCORE! Each year we change the local org. that will get all the benefits from the three nights of shows

[@HausofGaGadb]

I think of Kristin Chenoweth being the one stalking him. Hahaha!!

[@PrincessHalliwell]

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK SO PERFECT "go hooome girl..I'm not your toooy" "Taylor the latte boy..is calling the police" "come find me now i'm tranferring to a new starbucks there's 20 on each block so gooooooooooood luck!" KKKKKKKKKKKKK best parts

[@quadchops777]

@marigold101xox Kristen Chenoweth didn't write the song, she just is the singer who made it known. And I think what MissusKaiba16 was getting at was that the "character" that is portrayed in the original song is named Carol

[@Russwig]

And this is the perfect comeback...

[@devishree]

@MissusKaiba16 Lyrics were Marcy Heisler and The Music was Zina Goldrich (has sheet music)

[@DinsdalePiranha67]

My nephew recently did this as part of a showcase with his theater group. I thought he did it pretty well, but now I have to take off points because he didn't sing the first chorus in falsetto.

[@adelapotato]

i'm using this as refernece for how to perform this at a school concert. epic. absolutely epic.

[@buriedinhw7]

Best version of the rebuttal.

[@Carlhero-ce2xq]

GO AWAY GIRL, I'M NOT YOUR TOY

[@padoxiegirl]

ha ha ha I laughed till I cried. Ingenious!

[@aznqueenb]

... the baby kind of has good comedic timing adding that shrill shriek during the psycho piano. 2:29-2:31 Might just be genius.

[@meianeko]

best version I saw for this song, way to go!

[@emilyclark1187]

I love this so much!!! LINDSAY THE STALKER CHICK!!!!!!!!!!

[@futurepopstar911]

I'm OK...I can breath. It took me a couple of days and within those few days I showed it to all by bffs, parents, siblings, fanily, and think I might have posted it on to my facebook profile...lol

[@tayla4001]

love it but the baby noise is anoying👍👍👍

[@natcapucim]

awesome, awesome, awesome.

[@CathyCoconut]

Briliant! He does it so well

[@JerodM]

I think it would be great if they turned these two songs into a movie. Not just a stupid comedy, but something with some drama and action in it too.

[@canyoulikenot]

oh god i love this so much.

[@datsuaj]

This is so hilarious! It makes me laugh every time i watch it :) It's cute. He did a really good job!!!

[@UFOJockey]

If I worked at starbucks, and kristen chenowitz wrote a song about me, I'd wouldn't react the same way Taylor did.

[@TristanandIsolt]

She's my absolute dream girl. Beautiful, can sing, great sense of humor and under 5 feet tall.

[@1bearswanson]

999k views was the most exciting thing for me 😅

[@pigfishful]

Still laughing 10 minutes later! Thanks Ben! Nicely done.

[@CutandPrintFilms]

THIS IS BRILLIANT

[@DesB26]

hahahahaha sadly, i know a million guys who would probably sing this to me. brilliance.

[@Tinkashleigh16]

[@moclap12]

[@AngelSingerJOJO]

I love that when he says he callen the police.

[@TheAmbkn1]

[@cleo1871]

[@MorningMeasure]

This is beautiful.

[@harveygirl40]

Okay, you've gotta go see the "Taylor the Latte Boy Officer Response"...it's, like, the conclusion to a trilogy. Pretty funny.

[@ceciliavu6010]

IS THIS FLYNN RYDER/EUGENE FITZHERBERT?!?!?!?!??!?!?

[@marcosguevara9861]

+Cecilia Vu no, that guys name is Zachary Taylor

[@athanasia4878]

+Marcos Guevara it's actually zachary levi

[@AmazingWingedGirl]

i tihnk she did it on purpose to emphasize the ridiculousness of the song and to show how taylor's annoyed and how he thinks its pathetic

[@acidpisscup]

I watched this then started singing: YANDERE THE STALKER GIRL

[@explicitlyautistic]

hi syd its dolce

[@0xVi3tfire]

[@Falln4DarkAngel]

At the very end Kristin shouldve popped up and chased him off stage lol that wouldve been hilarious!

[@Sigillalith]

this is so funny!! I love the song Taylor the Latte Boy, but I had quite a different picture of Taylor, and the girl singing. (The name seems to change with whoever's singing it.)

[@andria0705]

this is GOLD!!!!!!

[@WonderfulAkari]

@CoHOCD The song changes the name depending on who's singing it, it's not actually written by kristian, she's just the most popular.

[@Lynch90]

FECKING BRILLIANT!! so hilarious

[@Donteatacowman]

My dreams of caffeinated romance have been dashed. D: How could you, Taylor?! I thought we had something!

[@waveatatteredflag]
