DJ Seinfeld - U
I still can't understand fully what is he saying
finally found the sample hahahaha. yes.
oh heck yes. Dj Seinfeld made a classic out of this sample
When the love of your life leaves, then one will understand what your life will be like
Same
Exceptionally articulate. Honest.
aww bless him. He really did love his wife, Paula. I'm glad he got his happiness x
Grief can be paralyzing..... so sad
This is a good man. He really nailed it about losing love and the emptiness that accompanies the loss of love. It never truly goes away completely. Loving differently happens in time...and that helps smooth things out but not ever the same...such a kind man. A great father, to his credit! I really like this amazing amazing man and wish only good things to his happiness from now on.
Bob Geldof is an AMAZING Human Being.
yes for sure
fat bob geldof, did more harm than good. he was down the dumper had no money pop career failing. saw a news report. and the lightbulb flashed obver his head. how can i pretend to help the starving in africa and make millions myself. a ha he thought get the poor people of britain to donate straight to my pocket. ill no only become a hero and sir bob but ill gain 300 million in the process. and he didnt pay a penny from his own pocket to help the starving in africa or anywhere else. all the pop stars that took part in live aid, all got more sales from being part of it. he used the poor and starving in africa to his advantage. hes a joke a evil human being, he also had michael hutchence bumped off. and still with all his millions now he never sends any money to africa or gives any to the poor. midge ure did band aid bob took the credit. bob now hates the band aid single do they know its christmas, and the reason being because of the continues sales each christmas that he doesnt get a penny from. like mariah carey her christmas single all i want for christmas earns her millions still. and bob cant stand the fact that he gets nothing from the band aid single. a nasty nasty evil person bob geldof the parasite.
@@questioneverything8301 nobody killed Michael Hutchence but Michael Hutchence Bob Geldof ain't no mobster that can get people bumped off now I do agree there was some shadiness with him in at Live Aid crap but it is what it is is done he did it is set in stone is history and that can't be erased however he did it whether he did it to make himself rich or whatever hey that's between him and God he has to live with that whatever but don't put the blame of somebody committing suicide on him Michael Hutchence didn't mean to commit suicide but he did it it's done let the man rest in peace let Paula rest in peace wherever she's at it's over with now peaches is with her so just let things be
Yep
"Universe of Grieve! "
Spot on ....perfectly put.
Love this man !!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

''..the shrunken soul was exposed to a persistence has no other response than to respond itself and gradually the soul gets stitched back together again''
love the way bob speaks so honest and genuine.
I love him.
I love him too❤❤❤
I recall Paula originally blamed Bob for his suicide. The night of Nov 22, she told reporters “they call him St. Bob but that's a joke. Michael obviously flipped out he was worn down by 3 years of torture”. Author Lovegrove, interviewed many who knew Paula and Michael, and found that Paula was telling friends Michael was on edge and had threatened suicide in his final year just weeks before his departure from London. Read the "Police Statement of Paula yates" she and Belinda talk about the problems Bob caused. lt was rumored that the reasons Paula later change to the sex game story as for money and because Bob threaten a slander suit for her calling him a murdered n the press - which dispite how Paula felt - it is technically slander.
You are a decent, thoughtful man with a generous kind heart deserving much better . Things always swing back....😀
Kimberly Sikorski No they don’t always swing back
We only miss and grieve as much as we have loved. It is a difficult and painful process.
So glad that this man has found love again.
What an amazing thoughtful insight to the pain he was feeling. I'm sure those of us that lose that "great love" can understand the words he says. I don't think it's just about plugging new music, I really think his interview was also a way of connecting and saying I might have this fame, money and everything else - but I still hurt and feel pain when my hearts been broken.
Well done Bob. And you're right. "Without Love in your life - it's meaningless"
wake up ..he brought pain and death to paula and michael he told us that god dont exist he is a 33 degreas freemason ..he is everything bur not a loveable and feeling human
@@susannesuanne2700 Shush now
I keep hearing the Seinfeld drop when he speaks 😂😂😂😂
Me too. So glad I found this though
Check out DJ Seinfeld - U for this sample. What a tune.
I could listen to this man's concept of life in general ,anything actually ..He's amazing
Nice to hear Bobs happy again, he’s had a lot to deal with as do a lot of us. It’s always good though to hear people coming through the other side, although I’d like to know what it’s like being rich and miserable........ you know, just to mix it up a bit!
Please don’t be in too much of a hurry to make a new album Bob , your gash 😉✌🏻
It's part of his HEALING!❤
I love Bob. I love Paula. I love Michael. People are human. Make mistakes. Fall in love. Nobody is exempt
very true...I agree with you
Yes, your right, the restrictions society puts on love is sometimes impossible. Paula was 18 when she met him, so .......
spot on, hope i meet my lady in paris or doncaster to stitch me back
I think he is an exceptional human being in the fact he took in Tiger and loved her like his own, that says a lot about him. His ex wifes lovers child! I dont agree with everything he says, but he deeply cares about the human race.
Of course anyone would take another ex's child in those circumstances. Thats a given
I keep listening DJ Seingfeld here
Thanks for this! I love Bob
Great man Bob 🕊♥️
Great for what .It's not for singing that's for fucking sure
in my prayers...
I remember being truly heart broken in my teens, there is no pain like it, How Bob Geldof described it is spot on. I think he is just a decent guy. This man was left broken and never fully recovered.
I'm a women and I have been thru this. And I fully understand
Shoutout DJ seinfield
I was hemmed but the devastation of losing loved in a very an organic manner and hearing you speak on heartache heartbreak and Howard Cheddar's your life Jesus help me the validate that loss I've been on the road back for about 10 years only defined that the things I've lost along the way I wasn't able to regain I'm looking at life different now 38 years old it took a big chunk out of my life cost me alot but having someone speak on it it's honestly as you have helps me to validate Lost Years thank you
I’ve spent the entire day watching videos on Bob. I must say that I fell in love with him today and I didn’t listen to his music with Boom Town Rats back in the early 80’s. He is a wise caring man and that’s attractive.
Yep, we got around it bro.....were with u here...... :)
I think Bob has done his part from when he came to Canada, Medicine Hat in the early 80's and made his way to Vancouver, to pursue his journalism there, He is an enigmatic character but a person should read his book for a better insight!
I love Bob!
I do not know the details of what happened in this sad story. We should not judge any of them because we do not know the facts. It is all a tragedy.
Bob, by 0:27 I understood you. The thing is, we always have love in our lives, whether we recognise it or not. ego wants a certain love, when we lose that, ego twists up inside... there is still love around us , but we're consumed by the idea of the love we want to experience and push other unconditional love away while searching for the one unconditional love we seek for ourselves. I'll press play again and listen to the remaining 4.5 minutes, cos Bob do has valid pointses to makes.
ok, I'm at 2:38 the tears have begun to well up in my eyes, and have been for some seconds of viewing. I realise, yet again, that I'm still in love with my ex wife, even though she hurt me badly, and I probably hurt her badly, she hurt herself badly. SHe's with someone else and Iv'e both let go of her yet not let go of my investment in her. I hope she's found the peace and happiness we both wanted... I have yet to find it, and doubt I ever really will... at least not in this life. I don't believe that love ever dies, love is a force that transcends human understanding. So my ex wife must have some love for me, I'm sure I've seen it... I've let go, but not let go.... moved on, but not moved on. This is the way I like it, the way I don't like it. LIMBO!
dude, you have no idea how real this comment is.
how can I really let any one else in, when I let that one person in already? I wasn't goood enough for her, or anyone else, I accept that. s o why bother for a 2nd go? the 2nd go seems absurd to me. the 2nd go, it'll always be second best. Jenny never wanted to be 2nd best, and, boy did I love her, I didn't want her to be 2nd best either. Jenny was amazing. I just wasn't the right guy. same with Caire, Diane, Kath, Sharon. and the woman I married before meeting the others...Donna. you all taught ,me something, but I'm too messed up and pissed up to even wanna be with a wman again. my fault. oh well....................they say it's better to have loved and lost... thank you, beautiful ladies.
What a man......he was 'IN LOVE' with Paula.
Such a rare beautiful gift. Losing this is heart wrenching. You are transformed for ever after this 💘💘
Bob is an intellect. I love his words 💯🙏
Poet!
Very true words.
Some of these comments are very hateful. I do not know Sir Bob Geldof yet feel he deserves a great deal of respect. He is one of the greatest Philanthropists ever. He also conducted himself with a huge degree of dignity and no doubt protected those kids exceedingly well during such a wild venomous media witch hunt.
I tip my hat to you Bob!
there are some very hateful comments on here about a man that none of you or i really know, except from his media persona!!! seems to me that hes a very intelligent man and has a lot of insight into real feelings, we all make mistakes in life and he`s no doubt made his but "evil"????? what b......!!!!!
Well said. Perfect.
This is an irish poet. Legend
He got custody because once her mother killer herself he was granted rights based on her wishes for the good of the child's upbringing. and has looked after her ever since. She is now old enough to find that side of her family if she wishes. Bob Geldolf deserves no blame.
That short sound byte is wonderful for SIR BOB,and i am genuinely happy for him, but as always their are two sides to this tale.
"Are you talking about Paula here?" What a stupid question..
Life without God is Meaningless Bob!!
God can't hug you, though. Piss over the eternal life once you lose your loved one.
I Agree Life without God IS Meaningless. You can be better or bitter. Whatever circumstances you face in this world IS God's Plan. I'm Trusting That.🙏
Yet he says he will NEVER marry or love again, thus is he sayin his bitter life is meaningless? I was widowed at 23 years old. I chose to love again. THAT is living. Thriving, not just surviving.
Saint Bob? Bob IS a saint, if not way back when then he is now. Who would be so generous as to take in the child of his ex wife and her lover, despite the tabloid horror story that his life became because of it? And I'm happy that Bob is the custodial parent, as both Michael's parents have since passed away and she should be with her half sisters and the father who was here to love her, which is Bob.
Love you bob ❤Andy hopkin
Galatians 6:7-9
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up"
Stfu how is that for sowing?
DJ Seinfeld - U ❤
Since this was made Geldof has lost his daughter and Richard Bacon almost died.
Some people just don't know what they talk about here...You were not part of their marriage, she had 3 kids from him. Yeah...she didn't love him....You can not blame someone for loving the mother of his children...I would love to look at your face, if your partner falls in love with a superstar...Of course, he was disappointed and didn't trust women afterwards, even if he knew he made mistakes. I'm sure, Paula wasn't innocent either...
I'm here because of U by DJ Seinfeld! 🙌🏻
A great man. He raise 4 childrens!!
You articulate your grief so well. (1 year!) Glad you emerged out of that great black hole of extreme suffering.
You have a point there..
bob geldof could be gandolf, the poor in africa still starving. bob gandolf mega super rich off the back of band aid and live aid. africa now as double the population so more mouths to feed than before gandolf interfered. people in africa still starving and dying. bob gandolf, knighted. oh yeah a real hero, not.
Bob really do understand you Great man.
If Geldoff was not an atheist, he would know love..GOD IS LOVE & LOVE IS THE BOND THAT NEVER DIES.
why...?
Yeah
He obviously purposely tried to not mention names
My life had been meaningless for 7 years and women won’t give me a chance
If he understands grief he ought to be more open to let Michael Hutchense daughter go see her real family, her grandmother and that sort of thing in australia. Geldoff is totally evil not letting Tiger know her real fathers family. Geldoff is not the dad and is not the mother but somehow got custody...
How stupid is all of this!!!!
can you elaborate?
I like Bob thing is Paula fell deep for Michael end of when he died she couldn't stand the thought of living without him yeah she had kids but we all make mistakes in life move on Bob you have got your family now as you always wanted 😢❤️😢
...he at least deserves that!
"Don't forget, I am above the law" - Geldof quoted by Paula Yates
wallacepearse ?
Exactly a quote, Paula was fond of sound bites "Lie Aid". Not saying he didn't say say it how do I know? But I don't think he did.
The comments are hateful for a good reason, you shld do your research, good or bad, before trashing another persons opinion. I'm not even sure that you planned to leave a comment regarding Bob's interview, but you were quick to judge the other persons opinion! One thing I know FOR SURE!!! None of them were thinking of YOU as they typed in their opinion.
Maybe you should try the basic's!! (In this case) there are two guys, one asking questions and one answering them, then "You Tube" asks if we (the ppl listening to this) have a comment or opinion about the interview! Not how you feel about the opinions others left behind.
I know it comes as a shock but, no one gives a rats ass on how you feel or don't feel about their opinion!
Did he come too?..
He sounds German. He sounds just like Giorgio.
And soap too.
Love 😘 is a Lie!!! 🤥
LIFE WITHOUT JESUS IS MEANGINLESS
Your stupid
how does god give you fullfilment? like literally what do you think about in relation to god how does it work that increases your happiness
"dead"? whats the implication behind that? that he killed her too? I'm afraid I can't just label sumone a murderer without a single thread of proof. Because that's insane.
Craig Hicks he’s not a fucking murdered you bitch
Roses are red
Vilets are blue
Women are heartless
An men then are mindless...
The ghosts of Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence cry out for justice.
Actually yes it has happened to me.....my ex husband is STILL OBSESSED WITH ME.....it isn't luv....its possession so his happiness is his responsibility and his unhappiness is my fault.....so I understand Paula's position that you refuse to let go and will continue to blame her for your own psychological paranoia that she found someone else.......
Disagree. It's not that simple. What is factual is that Bob wasn't being unrealistic but realistic.
He was in love after all these years and it was a painful realisation when Paula didn't feel the same anymore. The pain and heart wrenching in your heart , face and soul reality is the rejection and utter abandonment that is felt.
If it were the other way round Paula may have suffered the same fate!??
Unless you've been in that position your experience will be different.
I can equate completely with Bob.
He speaks from the heart and to speak from the depths of your soul about a gut wrenching experience is back to the old adage, "it's good to talk."
The more you talk about your pain and sharing it is undoubtedly a beautiful and integral part of the healing process.
I have no blame for the people involved in this very tragic and real situation.
It wasn't the best platform.
Media intrusion. Falsehoods. Children . Drugs and baggaged human beings who are flawed as we all are!
The years of rolled by and now I'm older I understand and accept that shit happens.
Realistically, Michael was troubled before he met Paula and struggled with the reality of his life and fame. Paula had BEEN known to have a complex and intrinsically chequered life. Bob had a lonesome but equally eventful upbringing. Each were successful in their own right.
But like many relationships, theirs too had run its course.
The media was in full flow which added more fuel to the fire.
As is well docummented , their marriage was up to intense scrutiny and pressure with no let up.
Not at any time were the children's welfare considered by the media except to cast non concrete aspirtions , the public started jumping on the band wagon too.
Taking sides and apportioning blame when the did not nor will ever know what really happened!
NON OF OUR BUSINESS!
Horrendous. Still to this day crude and insensitive comments continue and they remain judged.
Paula I feel took the brunt but realistically there were 3 adults who were at the helm!
The death of Peaches Geldof was just the next cruelest blow. Unbelievably tragic and still the comments continue to distort and wilfully regurgitate untruths and vilify .
A balanced view and will lessons be learned? .....No. Man will continue to destroy man for their own greed and gain.
RIP MH. PY. PG.
You tried.
Michael and your family , the same is wished for you.
May Bob Geldof Continue to heal and find that peace and love is rightly restored with his Wife and family.
God bless you all. ❤❤❤

Oh feel sorry for poor Geldof. If he loved her, he wouldn’t have treated her the way he did. He was very disrespectful to her. He did it on live tv. If he did it there I can only imagine how he was in private. I’ve said it before - he might have been “Knighted”, but he isn’t a gentleman. He’s a selfish jerk. Paula should have left his sorry @$$ long before she did. He doesn’t know how to treat a woman. 🤬🤬🤬
BOB YOU CANT KNOW REAL LOVE UNLESS YOU KNOW JESUS............
Honest articulate man describing so straightforwardly how to process pain by expressing it in a tangible object. Wow so helpful. What an authentic guy.
wonderful clip - Love is all you need x Love Song & Smiles x Rose x ♫♥♪¨¯`♥ ¸.♫♥♪¨¯`♥ ¸.♫♥♪¨¯`♥
Two words for Bob....
Michael Hutchence!!
Immature and meaningless.
I'm please Bob is happier now xxx
Dj seinfeld U
So without any proof then, calling someone a murderer is probably the most ridiculous thing ever then, no?
This is a great description of heart break when your love leaves you. Most experience heart break at some juncture - some of us severely.
Sometimes you can't even look at a
anti-poverty campaigner ? he has 150 million
he would get more love if he did not put 2 fingers up to our fishermen & campaigning against Brexit when he is not even British
heavy stuff. whats the proof?
Bob Geldof is a highly intelligent and intellectual Individual! 😎👍
DJ Seinfeld brought me here…
Such a shame Paula ruined her lovely family
But she had changed and this is the reality.
Did you want her to pretend! ?
Woops! MAN that you find remotely attractive. Because of fear and distrust!
Then u must be meaningless ..!!!!
His wife and daughter both died of heroin od's. He must have been fun to be around.
Anyone who makes you feel unworthy of love from anyone is NOT WORTH YOUR TIME. RUN. run.
Funny that the definition of love is God.
