Orton found success as a musician late, having been more interested in acting during her early career. She first gained notice in 1995 for her vocals on The Chemical Brothers' track "Alive Alone" and is well known for her collaboration (stemming from a relationship) with William Orbitin which she lends her voice for the Strange Cargoalbums.

Dolphins Lyrics

Beth Orton

This old world may never change
The way its always been
I know all the ways of war
Can I change it back again
Ive been searching
For the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder
Do you ever think of me
Im not the one to tell
This world how to get along
I only know that peace will come
When all our hate is gone
Ive been searching
For the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder
Do you ever think of me
Sometimes I think about
Saturdays child
And all about the time
You and me were running wild
Ive been searching
For the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder
Do you ever think of me
This old world may never change
