I've listened to this song for over forty years, and I just learned the story behind this song.
I knew the song from day one because the person was called brenda my name x
Come on man.... World needs another live aid.....
Bet he does, the Billionaire Sir Bob. Don't think he made that from his band.

Dear Mr.Geldof
Thanks for the Live Aids
I was about 60 feet from the stage. My ears are still ringing
I don't like Monday...I love bob geldof .more power to idol..
Sir Bob Geldoff, we need one Aid, like You organized before. This song is great, but the best thing is, You are great person, who help poor people. Thank You ❣
❤
He was at live aid in 1985
I, literally, came here after learning about Mr. Geldof from my class session tonight (Communicating and Healthy Community). Thank you for what you did for Ethiopia, sir. God bless you and your generations to come.
Am here to After learning about him. I thank you sir Bob for what u did to my beloved country
I came because he was in Pink Floyd the wall
Bob should apologise the innocent Ethiopian he betrayed them in their difficult time. He prepared live donations event to help them, however the money goes for other purposes. And no money goes that innocent and disparate people, by the time as we was on civil war, the TPLF ( they was fighting against the ruling gvt by the time) took the money and showed him a full suck of sand in the lorry to betrayed his efforts to save life. And then they use the money to buy weapons to fight the ruling gvt. Since then they win the war and comes power, later he was a good friend of them. He has owned a lot of thing in Ethiopia as a return ( including the historical wine made factory) without any computation. We need a formal assessment and how he made a mistake but no one ask him to come this way because we been in may difficult situation and the ruling gvt was his allies.
We never forget this and we will write it as a history
Yeah, Eritrea would like to have a word with Mr. Geldof
"I'm very sorry that i have to perform on this stage, i just enjoy playing with myself" LMAO
This is an ingenious composition and song by the way.
Based on a school shooting! Brenda spencer, look it up!
@@kelleymariejones6388 yeah and she still is in jail. She was 16 back then, so she spend her whole life in the jail, didn’t she
This song still gives me the shivers!

He's still a fine looking man . And I love his vocals . ❤❤❤
Legend.
Hope people know what this is about
Geldof sounds as good as he was in 1985.
15 years ago though
Bob è sempre bellissimo❤️
Hahaha
Bob Geldolf is such a good man. Raised Michael Hutchins daughter with his own children when her mother died. She was half sister to his kids.
Bless this kind, amazing man.
What he did in 1985 was miraculous.
@@lionelbled5146 I'm Norwegian.
He has had his own heartache, yet still cares for others.
I agree Ingrid, he is a kind and caring man.
It was Midge Ure who did all the work, Bob claimed the credit.

Bob thank you for the best thing you did to us...Ilove you..
Song Never grows old.....unfortunately for our society!
Great classic song that still gives me shivers....I remember him doing it at the original Live Aid and it was amazing. And no matter what the haters here wanna say, it sounds like everyone at this concert was very into it and loving the song, and probably not too concerned about the negativity from the folks behind their keyboards watching UA-cam. No matter where this song gets played it has that same reaction and it wouldn't be a Live Aid-inspired benefit without it!
I was there at the live 8 concert that day. We enjoyed Bob singing this song and were singing along to it.
I was there and everyone enjoyed him playing the song
❤️
Ive recently come across this Clip and FKING LOVE It Sooo much!! Ive replayed it many times over the last few days. Love this song MORE than ever!
This song is about Brenda Spencer, a 16-year-old high school student who lived across the street from Cleveland Elementary School in San Diego, California. On Monday, January 29, 1979, she opened fire on the school with a rifle her father had given her for Christmas, killing two adults and injuring nine children before going back to her home. Police surrounded her home and waited for seven hours until she gave herself up. In that time, she spoke with a reporter on the phone. When asked why she did it, she replied, "I just started shooting, that's it. I just did it for the fun of it. I just don't like Mondays. I just did it because it's a way to cheer the day up. Nobody likes Mondays. While in Atlanta touring, Bob Geldof heard the news story about Brenda Spencer. Geldof composed the song on the spot, Bob got a message from Brenda telling him she didn't regret what she did. as otherwise he wouldn't have written the song which made both of them more famous; but Geldof would have none of it. He says that it's not a song about her or what she did, but about amorality in general, Brenda was sentenced to 25 years life in prison . Brenda also thanked both the press and the Boomtown Rats -- for making her famous !!! one more thing is that song was #1 hit in different countries, but it flopped in USA maybe because the subject matter hit too close to home. gun violence is a big problem in America or because Brenda Spencer's father threatened to sue if it was released as a song. Bob was not happy with that decision and he regrets that it was not a single in the US.
Damn, I never knew this
There had been no mass school shootings to speak of in the US in 1979, so your theory of “hitting close to home”? Nope, not at all.
@@kennethtilton6137 this was the warning shot to put it crudely of what was to come....I believe Maged means about the lax US gun laws being too close to home....no one wants to admit idiots can legally obtain a gun....seems they have not learned a lot since Brenda Ann Spencer...why are high school shootings still happening today??
I did not nothing about that story. When you don't like any dday ,it is not reason to kila the people.
@@kennethtilton6137 well yeh the mass shooting she committed was in 1979? January 29th to be exact
Such a nice man. I love him so much.
So much respect for this man, 👍👍👍👍
Ditto. RESPECT IN CAPITALS 🙏
I saw the Rats in March of 1979 at the Kabuki in San Francisco and Bob Geldoff announced that was the first time they played the song which was not long after the murders.
My highest respect to Bob Geldof for his work and his tireless efforts. Words can´t express how much I love Bob Geldof. Always did, always will. Best wishes.
i bet u r awesome too
@@frankdonaldsoncanadianking9651 Thank you. Ditto. xx
I like him too. He’s a bit of a pain in the arse sometimes but he’s a good man I can tell-.no one has done so much for the world the way he has.
Esse é um verdadeiro anjo na terra, parabéns, mesmo sem o conhecer, o melhor da vida para vc Bob.
Love You Bob Geldof..
.." Tell My Why I Dont Like Mondays ".
EPIC LYRICS
✊️
a while back there was a school shooting and when the young girl was asked why she did it she replied "I dont like mondays" here is a Wikki page about it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Elementary_School_shooting_(San_Diego)
Bob geldof is amazing
Keep on being kind and great, Bob Geldof....!! 💪💪
We are still waiting for the Live Aid or Live 8!
Good song !
As for him he’s done quite well really, not many people could live off 1 song for 40 odd years
I mean it's their biggest hit but nowhere near their only one
I see where your going with that......I agree!!
He also organized LiveAid….
more than what you did.
Nice to see an audience without a load of phones in hands
El malo mas malo

Good catch. Good point.
You do realise, this was in 2005? 2 years before modern touchscreen phones?
@@FinkerMcBinker aye the video would take up the whole memory on a 2005 camera phone 😂
There was always something about Bob that I loved so much.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Damn Pink seems to be fine now he doesn't has his wall around
Maybe I should take notes lol.
Lol
The Nazi thing was just a phase...:-)
This idiot sucks and was just the actor in THE WALL.
@@erikakathleen509 this idiots achieved more in his life that you ever did !
Thank you for Your" s caritasa work , and " Band aid " , sir Bob Geldof. This verry good song, but I like Mondays..Kindest regardas from Zagreb, Croatia
It’s pretty amazing that he performed this at both Live Aid concerts without planning to. At the original because Ultravox had got stuck in traffic on the way to the stadium, and here because he just felt like it. Pretty incredible that this hodge podge of musicians was able to put together such a good performance with 5 minutes notice too!
A cracking song and a really good performance too
Very valued point god bless bob ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Geldof sounds as good as he was in 1985.
Yep. Still shite.
Ya.. Which wasn't even good then lol
Oh look, Christopher doesn't like something that someone else likes, so thank Jah for the internet so he can inform us all of what he doesn't like that someone else likes, therefore allowing himself to spread The all-important negativity.
Great work, keep it up!
;-)
@@NOWtheband what is it that you're spreading? The long arms of Internet police?
@@thesundog8833 - Yes, you've got it! ;-)
Jah bless-upz!
I was there it was a special moment never forgotten!
Brings back memories of going to work on Monday knowing my boss knew how much fun I had at work on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Live, he has never topped the rendition at Live Aid. That got the deliberately solemn tempo spot on.
As an Ethiopian I thank you
Me too!!!

Muy buena canción y una buena persona ayudando a los más necesitados.

Next month I will be having dinner with Sir Bob Geldof. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would meet him. Thank you God for this opportunity.
Andrew Skinner what
@@rygdoomed442 What do you mean what? I am having dinner with Sir Bob Geldof when he comes to Australia next month.
Lol. How much he charging you for the honor?
@@darrenporter1850 145 Australian dollars.
@@andrewskinner8560 Hello. Sorry if you are excited to meet him, but he charges people to meet him. Hmm.. I won't give my view on that.
That s why i love gigs... there is beautiful moment ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧👍👍👍👍
🙅♀️🙌💖💖
Прочитав у коментах історію цієї пісні -- дивно надихатися такою особою та її безглуздим вчинком. Хіба що, як пишуть фанати, аби зібрати допомогу голодуючим у Ефіопії, будь-що згодиться.
The best music and lyrics i ever heard
Me too.
This is message for Africa good and beautiful thank you Bob gheldof
I wonder if Bob Geldof really don't like Mondays? And I wonder if Bob Geldof is a good Chess player like I am. Or maybe even a mega big Human League fan. Like I am. If I could give Bob Geldof a knighthood 4 all of his good work and music. I will gladly give him the nickname. Of. King Bob Geldof. Ather Chess Peace's and the good work that he has done. And yes to everyone on Facebook. I am a good Chess player. Who has played 9 times 4 Hampshire. And I also know a good Chess question. That the experts in Chess. Will never ever get the right answer to. Mind u. The arswear 2 the chess question. Has got nothing to do with Chess what so ever. And the chess question is this. What do the squares A1 A2 B1 and B2 on a chessboard got in common with the city of Portsmouth where I live in and play Chess 4?
Paul Eyles I prefer checkers
To geldolf where's the money for Africa you pilfering bastard
@@stevebryant1588 defamation of character. We love him and there's nothing you can do about it. Bet you wish you were loved, but alas you spend your time defaming a man who probably achieved more in a day than you have in your whole tragic life
music makes a difference...eradicate poverty...we sing as one...
Gran canción y estupendo Geldof. Humanitario. Siempre ocupándose por los necesitados. ❤️
It is wonderful to see all the people actually watching and listening rather then looking on twitter
He apologies for getting on stage. After creating the amazing Live Aid concerts and charity. Go ahead, Bob, you've earned it.
🤗👍😜☮❤
Bless this kind and generous man!
He lost the Nobel Peace Prize to my favorite writer. I love Elie Weisel but Mr. Geldolf deserved the honor.
The guy is a fucking rich twat moron,and someone who needs to know what damage people like him,with his ridiculous tie,did to us.
The only award he would get is the
"Complete Peace Taker," prize..
@@maddypalone9731 methinks someone is very jealous of a titan compared to you. Makes you feel small does he, well if the cap fits.
Love you Bob❤
A man with a great voice and a golden heart, i love Bob Geldof forever! ❤️
Me too. Listen, we Are The World, we are the Children..
I just found out how Bob Geldof helped with Ethiopia!
im just a homeless nobody .. Thank u for this video 🙏
at the darkest time you and those with humanist sprit europeans saved my people, thank you forever Bob.
am not good at expressing my feeling even with the broken english but what I can say finally is we #TIGRAY_PEOPLES Will remember, pray and follow you and for you forever!
Great personality!

Well done Bob, it's still a good song after all the year.
The Best....Sir. BOB GELDOFF...BEAUTIFUL....
Mr G you need to get on a Liveaid Covid 2023
My favourite song from the times of my high school
I just watched the 1985 live aid performance, and now this one. They're both great, but I like this one better because you can hear the crowd singing better.
Sounds better than he did in 1985!!
Trully!!
Una de las mejores canciones del pop-rock que existen. Simplemente Bob Geldof!!!
Veramente non è pop rock, ma punk
Grande Bob geldof
As good now as it was 40ys ago. Go on Bob!!
Un genio Geldof .un buen tema una triste noticia. 😘😘😘😘
Over 100 Thumbs down........ WTH? Thanks Bob...loved it
Sir Bob Geldof is a brilliant humanitarian and The Boomtown Rats made a serious contribution to the New Wave Scene in the late 70's... The tune "I Don't Like Mondays" was ahead of it's time when it addressed a school shooting before most people were familiar with the threat... Bob's personality and passion was the driving force behind the original Live Aid and he has my respect and admiration...
Facts:This song is actually a true story 👌m.ua-cam.com/video/vG2atI0oVe0/v-deo.html
Wow! When you can pull a crowd together in one moment and one feeling, it's Magic!
The crowd isn't supposed to cheer at the moment when the music stops. People always ruin that moment by doing that.
Lovely man class singer one of the best human being in the world
man...he sounds exactly like he did in 1979
Its nearly 20 years since live 8 😮
Que Grande Bob'' me encanta tu música...😚😚😚
Damn Pink seems to be fine now he doesn't has his wall around
Great song.
People were murdered.
The dead are not at the concert.
DESDE ARGENTINA TE ADMIRO

A classic song, about a sad event.
Que hermoso Dios te bendiga Bob!
I idol Mr bab geldof.
This is the best version for me
I wasn't expecting Bob Geldof to sound like one of the BeeGees
💕🤗Bob pięknieje z biegiem lat 👍♥️♥️a wokal Super ❣️__wciáż zachwyca 👍💪❣️💃🕺💃💃🕺🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶♥️
Immer wieder sehr schön! Herr Geldorf wiederholen Sie das doch bitte, für Den Weltfrieden wäre das mehr als passend
This was my first introduction to this song when I saw it back in the 2005/6
Pretty much the greatest ever song about a fucking school shooting. If there can ever be such a thing. A wonderful song, and performance, but it should always be remembered why this song came into existence.
Yep...the world does need another love and live aid....the other side of covid 19 xoox
Listen to Go Man Go, Mondo Bongo album. It's like they predicted the pandemic!
That would be great! Its needed for sure!
My favourite SONG! 2020
Love you lou xxx
des song is very nice
Sir Bob Geldof
Good man.
if anybody knows about famine its bob, he's been dining out on this song for years
It has always kept his belly full.. Haha
@julie wood shut up you fool
Russel Brand quote! Love it ! Sums the guy up!
@julie wood How many songs have you gotten published and recorded, precious? People know who he is. Does anyone know who YOU are? Didn't think so.
@julie wood Mr Paula Yates, he had fuck all, she was pegging him up, and midge ure was the actual driving force behind live aid, but geldof took all the credit
I love him ! 2020 listening
Here. 2021! Is he still alive?
Beautiful ❤
