The great song of indifference - Bob Geldof

The first single from Bob Geldof's second solo album 'Vegetarians of love' was the track 'The great song of indifference', in which the lyric 'I don't mind at all' was the recurring theme. It became his biggest hit, not only reaching number 15 in the UK singles chart, but also number 20 in Germany and number 14 in the Netherlands.

Love or something - Bob Geldof

After Bob Geldof has made a career of charity, he was still not a very rich man. He still had a solo music career and recorded the album 'The vegetarians of love' in 1990. 'Love or something' was the second single from that album. Whereas the first single, 'The great song of indifference' reached number 15 in the UK singles chart, this one did not chart at all.

Geldof still did well for himself: in 2001, his fortune was estimated to be £30 million. It is not known how much of his earnings he donates to charity himself...
