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.

Where Do You Go Lyrics
Beth Orton
Now when I need you
Youre nowhere around
Just when Im going then
Youre taking a trip down town
How do you fly so far
With the world in disguise
Do the people around you
Put you to where they need you
Where do you go
When the wind doesnt blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze
I long to smell you
To feel you within
I need you near to me
Just the touch of your skin
I want to hear you
And tell you again
But so much can happen
Makes it harder to explain
Where do you go
When the wind doesnt blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze
You think I need no one
Youre always around
Turning on a sixpence
Locked in the crowd
Now when I need you
Youre nowhere around
Just when Im going down
Youre takin a trip down town
Where do you go
When the wind doesnt blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze
