5 Seconds Of Summer finally released its self-titled debut album today (July 22) in the United States, and the "Amnesia" band is celebrating in the true pop star way: with a morning performance on The Today Show in New York City's Rockefeller Plaza. The Australian foursome roared through singles "She Looks So Perfect" and "Amnesia" to one of the biggest crowds host Matt Lauer has seen all year.
Though 5SOS fans had been camping out to see the band since last Thursday, the group kicked off things humbly: "If you know this song, sing along," said Luke Hemmings before launching into "She Looks So Perfect."
And, yeah, of course the thousands of teenage girls knew every word. How could they not?!
With graffiti behind them and celebratory energy bouncing off all four members, 5SOS gave an energy-filled, rousing performance of the hit single, as every girl in the audience put her hands in the air, screamed and sang along to every word.

"This is the most incredible thing that ever happened to us right now," said Ashton Irwin regarding the band's biggest waiting audience to date before 5SOS launched into its third 5 Seconds Of Summer, the longing love ballad "Amnesia."
Once again, the band humbly asked the audience to sing along if they know they words, and the callbacks of the audience could be heard just as loudly as the vocals from Calum Hood.
