"A Lovely Day Tomorrow" was a one-off single from British Sea Power, only released to shops in the Czech Republic but available at certain shows and via mail order in the United Kingdom. It is a re-recording of an early b-side by the band. Zítra Bude Krásný Den is in fact "A Lovely Day Tomorrow" sung in Czech. Both version of the song feature lead vocals by Kateøina Winterová of The Ecstasy of St Theresa. Whilst the original plan had been to teach original vocalist, Hamilton, the Czech lyrics it was thought to be easier to recruit someone else. The song deals with the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich by two Czech agents during WW2. To celebrate the entry of Czech Republic into the European Union it was decided to put out this release as a limited edition of 1,942 copies (the year the operation took place). The two bands also played special shows at Prague's Rozy Theatre and London's Cargo club, and BSP gained a sponsorship deal with Budvar beer. B-side "Fakir" is a traditional Czech song.
