Perhaps best described as a folk/electronica artist, Beth Ortonwas born in East Dereham, Norfolk, and moved to East London at age 14. 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. The collaboration with Orbit named SuperPinkyMandy, though of excellent sound, was only released in very limited numbers in Japan. Orton's first solo album, Trailer Park, was released in 1996.

Precious Maybe Lyrics
Beth Orton
Sometimes I get to thinkin, baby, when Im all alone
I could maybe make it on my own
The more, oh, you set me free
The more attractive you seem to be
And my baby
My precious baby
Youre my maybe
My only maybe
Sometimes I get to thinkin when were on the
Telephone
Are you really on your own
So more that you set me free
The more deceptive it gets to be
And my baby
My only maybe
Youre my baby
My precious maybe
Sometimes I get a feelin in every part of me
Nothin is what it seems to be
The more, oh, you set me free
The more addicted I get to be
Youre my baby
My only maybe
Youre my baby
My precious maybe
Ooh, my baby
Ooh, my baby
My precious baby...
