Duran Duran has somewhat surprisingly found itself with a second hit radio single from "Astronaut." The new song, "What Happens Tomorrow," is a midtempo jam that could remind casual listeners of the band's last monster hit, "Ordinary World." The cut is already climbing some airplay charts, including adult top 40 and modern AC. It is a swooning, heartening track, wherein Simon LeBon sings, "But nobody knows, what's gonna happen tomorrow" and "You've got to believe/ It'll be alright in the end/You've got to believe/It'll be alright again." Duran Duran is on a hot streak right now, as the reunited band is on tour and "Astronaut" is its biggest-selling studio album since 1993.—KC
