“Ong Ong” by Blur
From the album The Magic Whip (2015)
“Ong Ong” by Blur appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2015. It was first released in 2015 on the album The Magic Whip. Its best result is #36 on the Studio Brussel De Eindafrekening 2015. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #364 alternative song of 2015.
"Ong Ong" comes from The Magic Whip, the 2015 album that ended Blur's 12 years without a studio record, and all four members share the writing credit: Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree. That counts for something, since it was the first Blur album in 16 years with the original lineup on board from start to finish; Coxon had turned up on just one song of Think Tank.
The album was recorded in Hong Kong and London, and their longtime producer Stephen Street was back for the first time since the 1997 album Blur, producing alongside Albarn and Coxon and mixing with Stephen Sedgwick, who handled the recording. The song itself surfaced a few days ahead of the album.
