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.

I Wish I Never Saw The Sunshine Lyrics
Beth Orton
Baby do you know what you did today,
Baby do you know what you took away,
You took the blue out of the sky,
My whole life changed when you said goodbye,
An I keep crying, crying.
Ooooh baby,
Ooooh baby,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
An if I never saw the sunshine bay,
Then maybe I wouldnt mind the rain.
Every day is just like the day before,
All alone a million miles from shore,
All of my dreams I dreamed with you,
Now they will die and never come true,
An I keep crying, crying.
Ooooh baby,
Ooooh baby,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
An if I never saw the sunshine bay,
Then maybe I wouldnt mind the rain.
Ooooh this pain,
And I know there would not be,
This cloud thats over me,
Everywhere I go.
Ooooh baby,
Ooooh baby,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
I wish I never saw the sunshine,
An if I never saw the sunshine bay,
Then maybe I wouldnt mind the rain.
Ooooh this pain,
I wouldnt mind the rain,
There wouldnt be this pain,
I wouldnt mind the rain,
I wouldnt mind the rain
