Blur took to US network TV for the first time together since 2002 yesterday to perform "Ong Ong".
It's one of the album's out-and-out pop songs, and sees Damon Albarn strumming away on an acoustic guitar, backed by a chorus of backing vocals and a seesawing Alex James.

Check out the "Ong Ong" below.
