Geldof tackles Sex, Age & Death...

Former Boomtown Rat Bob Geldof's new songs tackle the deaths of Paula Yates and Michael Hutchence according to press reports in Ireland. The singer's next solo album, the first in 10 years, will openly deal with the deaths of his former wife and her lover.

Called Sex, Age and Death, it contains a number of tracks concerning the disintegration of Geldof's marriage to Yates, the subsequent suicide of Hutchence, and Yates's death by drug overdose.

On a track called Inside Your Head, Geldof asks: "Why put a noose around your neck?/What the f*ck's going on inside your head?"

The song also includes lyrics capturing Geldof's reaction to the end of his relationship with Yates: "You got the gold, I got the lead/You got the juice, you left me the dregs/You got the palace, I got the shed/You got a life, you left me for dead/What the f*ck's going on inside your head?"

Talking about the album, Geldof comments: "Some things are unsayable, but maybe I can articulate them in music."

The album is expected to be released in September and has been produced by Queen drummer Roger Taylor.

Ray's Comment: Go Bob, 'bout time you got all that off your chest - just hope the public will sympathise with your pain and not turn on you... Having admired your resolve over the past number of years I am a tad shocked that much bitterness lies beneath as is sooo strongly illustrated in your fu*king lyrics... I'd avoid touring this one in Australia!!!
