Bob Geldof on Robert Elms (Radio London)

I get into this melancholic state, it's not a depression ... you can use it [depression] as an animus, I mean physical things can spark it like twilight - I get very edgy if I'm not doing stuff
...
If there's nothing going on I have to have a book that I just get lost in, somebody else's world
...
If you have an idea, this is the city to live in if you have ideas, I mean London is driven by the culture of ideas ... so this is the place to be if you want to be in music and the arts, that's my view, it's the most exciting city in the world, and I could choose to live elsewhere so I choose to be here
