Thank you, but this is not the song I am looking for. It is the only song I can find on the interwebs with the "orphan of the storm" lyrics but it's not the same song. The song I have starts with "Take this sword away from me, you know damn well I'll use it." And the chorus is just repeating, "Are we only orphans of the storm" twice. It may be from a college/local band from the Santa Clara/Silicon Valley area.more »
Late 80s/early 90s, Bay Area (California), likely the "alternative" genre, male singer with the chorus something along the lines of "Are we only orphans of the storm?"
Manic Monday reached number two on the UK Chart in 1986 for The Bangles but which pop superstar actually wrote the song and gave it to the lead singer (Susanna Hoffs) in order to try and win her affection?
