It is thought that Shockwave is the title of the lead single, as when a fan told him he thought Shockwave sounded "like a class single," he seemed to confirm the news, replying: "It’s gonna blow your wig off".

Whatever it means, it looks like we won't have to wait very long to find out, with 7 June coming just one day after the world premiere of his As It Was documentary.
