    I'm pretty sure that's actress Polly Noonan in the video as well. She talked about the filming of this video and is friends with the band. She was the little girl with the thick glasses on the school bus in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

    "It's a shame about Ray" lyrics. 🤘🎸🎤 I've never been too good with names
    The cellar door was open, I could never stay away
    I know it's probably not my place
    It's either-or, I'm hoping for a simple way of saying
    It's a shame about Ray
    In the stone, under the dust, his name is still engraved
    Some things need to go away
    It's a shame about Ray
    (Put it away)
    If I make it through today
    I'll know tomorrow, not to leave my feelings out on display
    I'll put the cobwebs back in place
    I've never been too good with names, but I remember faces
    It's a shame about Ray
    In the stone, under the dust, his name is still engraved
    Some things need to go away (shame, shame)
    It's a shame about Ray
    (Put it away)

    I was 19 when this came out and I wished it was longer. The whole LP infact. Then, older and, some might say (although not many), a bit wiser, I realised that's part of its beauty. Like the butterfly. The song is there. Then it's gone. Unless you put it on repeat of course but that's not the point. I've forgotten what the point is except that I was stupid when I was young.

    I met him after a show in DC back in the day...we were both 26. We talked alot, he talked about Australia, he told me that I should not be working at a think tank in DC, we kissed!, and I went home. The next morning, I went to work at the think tank, and I told the story to my co worker who had a quirky sense of humor and put a post it note on my office door, dubbing me Reneee Lemon! Days later, I was in line at the grocery store and there he was on People Magazine, one of the 50 most beautiful people, wearing exactly what he was wearing the night I met him! I go to trivia and my friend, the host, often plays a Lemonheads song. She was fascinated by and could not believe how cool my story. I hope he is well... didn't look like he was doing too great, lately?

      He was living in Sydney at the time and co-wrote the song with an Australian mate.
      I remember the Sydney indie-scene showed him (envious) snobbish disrespect, like Sydney's alt-pub-rock scene was way too cool for him.
      Screw those posers, it's a beautiful song.
