And then we've been thinking so much about all these kids in refugee camps who are just like us, people being labeled as just migrants or just refugees or just immigrants, and they're human people like everyone else, and we were thinking about particularly the young people who've been displaced, who just want to go home and be normal like everybody else. In 97.9X WBSX's Uninterrupted Disruption track by track, Chris said the band manager Dave Holmes asked him if he could "sneak that idea that I've heard on that?", making the band record it very quickly, and, eventually, asking Swedish producer Max Martin to finish the production of the song. On an interview with Annie Mac for BBC Radio 1's Future Sounds, Chris Martin explained: " There was a tiny seed of it for a minute and then, just as we were mixing, I felt like, "Oh, I gotta find that little voice memo", and then the whole song came through a light, so I asked the rest of the band if we could record because we had one or two days left or something." "Orphans" came along in the last week of the album production, being a last minute addition to the track list, although its title was already around for a while, according to the band.
