David Gilmour re-records “Comfortably Numb” with Ice T

Posted September 20, 2024 by Floydian Slip

Comfortably Numb by Body Count


David Gilmour
appears on a new recording of “Comfortably Numb” made by Ice T‘s group Body Count.

The metal band’s reworking of the Pink Floyd classic is out now on digital platforms. It’ll be part of the band’s “Merciless” album that drops Nov. 22.

The collaboration began when Ice T contacted Gilmour for permission to cover the song. “I thought I might offer to play on it as well,” Gilmour tells Guitar World. “I like the new lyrics, they’re talking about the world we’re living in now, which is quite scary.”

Lyrics on the new version are by Ice T, replacing those on the original that were by Roger Waters.

“For me, ‘Comfortably Numb’ is an introspective song,” Ice-T tells the magazine. “It’s me acknowledging that I’m older now. I’m telling the younger generation, you’ve got two choices: You can keep the fire burning or you can give up.

“It’s me trying to make sense of what’s happening, but also pointing out that we’re all in a place where we don’t have to face reality.”
