03 Nov 2005 - Kate Bush About 'Aerial'

Kate Bush will reveal that recording her first album in 12 years almost killed her, in a new interview this week.

The famously reclusive star has given her first radio or TV interview in over a decade to the BBC, to speak about the new LP "Aerial". The interview goes out on Friday and finds Bush speaking candidly about the record, which is the follow-up to "The Red Shoes", from 1993.

Speaking to John Wilson on Radio 4's "Front Row" show, Bush says how difficult "Aerial" was to make. "I'm very opinionated. I'm horrible to work with; I'm so fussy and picky," she explains. "What's good is that I know what I want. It's when you don't know what you want that you're in trouble. There were so many times I thought I wasn't going to have the energy to see it through. I knew I couldn't go on any longer, it would've killed me. I was so fed up making it."??

During the course of the interview, Bush also explains her extended absence from the pop world, as she raised her son Bertie. "I wanted to give as much time as I could to my son. I love being with him, he's a lovely little boy and he won't be little for very long. I felt my work could wait whereas his growing up couldn't."

Bush also denies claims she is a recluse, commenting: "I am a private person, but I don't think I'm obsessively so. It's more that I choose to try and have a normal a life as possible. I don't like to live in a glare of publicity."

"Aerial" is released on Monday, November 7.

01 Nov 2005 - Geldof wins Nobel Prize

????Bob Geldof has been named the 2005 Nobel Man Of Peace, after years of pioneering work for the world's underprivileged.

The announcement of the honour was made at last night's DVD launch party for Live 8, which was organised by Geldof this summer, 25 years after he instigated Live Aid.

Geldof saus he is "overwhelmed" by the prize, which will be presented by the former leader of the Soviet Union, Mikael Gorbachev in Rome next month.
A statement said Geldof had been chosen "for his unflagging work and powerful voice on behalf of the poor of Africa over the last 20 years and in particular the last 12 months. He has harnessed world opinion to make political leaders act immediately, improving the lives of millions."

Geldof himself commented: "I am overwhelmed and deeply proud to receive this award from such an esteemed and exceptional collection of individuals. It reaffirms the progress made by Live 8 and the Make Poverty History campaign and underlines the unwavering support for its aims internationally."

The Live 8 DVD, featuring performances from the likes of U2, Robbie Williams, Sir Paul McCartney and Coldplay, is released on November 7.
