What Happens Tomorrow

What Happens Tomorrow is the 33rd single by British pop band Duran Duran. Released on 31 January, 2005 it was the second single to be lifted from the group's Astronaut album.

The track was originally debuted on an American radio station in 2002 while the band were hunting around for a record deal. During the outro, bassist John Taylor announced that it would be a single later on in the year.

The version of "What Happens Tomorrow" played on the radio was an early demo featuring an extended bridge, which would be removed by the time the track was released on Astronaut.

The bridge was reworked and became it's own track called "Silent Icy River," which features as the b-side to "What Happens Tomorrow".

As as additional sweetener, the single also featured an edit of Eric Prydz's remix of "(Reach Up For The) Sunrise". The full-length mix was released on a promotional 12" during the "Sunrise" campaign.
