Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour appears in a new video for the cover of the band’s classic “
Comfortably Numb
” from Ice T’s heavy metal group Body Count.
The video features black-and-white footage of Gilmour performing his guitar contribution to the song, cut with footage of Ice T at the mic, the band performing and images depicting the lyrics Ice T is rapping.
“Body Count’s version of ‘Comfortably Numb’ is quite radical, but the words really struck me,” Gilmour shared when the tune was first released. “It astonishes me that a tune I wrote almost 50 years ago is back with this great new approach. They’ve made it relevant again.”
“
Comfortably Numb
” is available now via
digital outlets
. The song will appear on Body County’s new album,
Merciless
, which drops Nov. 22.
