Ice-T Performs ‘Comfortably Numb’ on ‘Tonight Show,’ Talks Getting Approval From Battling Pink Floyd Members


Ice-T performed Body Count's new version of Pink Floyd's 'Comfortably Numb' on 'Tonight Show' on Wednesday (Dec. 4), talked okay from band members.

The long-running Law & Order: Special Victims Unit co-star later returned for a performance of Body Count’s metal-edged cover of “Comfortably Numb,” filling the Tonight Show studio with the strains of their ominous take on the Pink Floyd classic. Bathed in green light, his eyes obscured behind black wrap-around shades, Ice sang/spoke the iconic “hello, hello, is anybody out there/ can anybody hear me?” over pealing guitars and down-tuned, rumbling bass. Body Count’s cover appears on their eighth studio album, Merciless, which features collaborations with death metal howler Corpsegrinder, Light the Torch singer Howard Jones and Soulfly vocalist/guitarist Max Cavalera.
