That new One Direction material might be coming sooner rather than later.

After the boys hinted at their “more edgy” new material on The Today Show, “La La La” hit-maker Naughty Boy‘s just gone and revealed the title of a (potential) 1D lead single called “One Chance To Dance,” co-penned by Emeli Sandé and 1D’s own Zayn Malik.

“We wrote it with Emeli Sandé and it’s a real progression for them. I’ve been told there’s a big chance it’s going to be the first single from their next album. I literally finished it this morning so I’m allowed to talk about it now,” he revealed to The Sun.

It’s no surprise that Naughty Boy’s teamed up once again with constant collaborator Emeli Sandé (the two crafted most of Sandé’s debut album Our Version Of Events), although the pairing with Zayn is a first. “We’re Muslim and that’s helped us bond. We love curries, too, so it’s the little things as well. In this industry it’s hard to make real friends but we’d be mates even if we didn’t work in music,” he explained. No new friends? Not for Naughty Boy.

So, now that we know “One Chance To Dance” exists: Are you ready to hit the dance floor with 1D, Directioners? Let us know what you think about the potential new single in the comments below.
