Background and release


The CD single of "Dare" was released in the United Kingdom on 29 August 2005.[5] It reached number one in the United Kingdom on 4 September 2005.[6] On the US Billboard Hot 100, it peaked at number 87 on 14 January 2006[7] and number eight on the Modern Rock Tracks chart on 4 March 2006.[8]

For this song, English vocalist Roses Gabor (birth name Rosemary "Rosie" Wilson) took over the role of Noodle from Miho Hatori, who had previously sung as the character on the first Gorillaz album.

Chris Evans stated at the 2006 Brit Awards that the song was originally to have been called "It's There", but was changed due to Shaun Ryder's strong Mancunian accent making it sound like he was saying "It's dare." In a 2017 interview with Chris Moyles on Radio X Ryder confirmed his version of events, that it was him requesting a change to his headphone level, "it's going up, it's going up, it's there!".[9][10]

In 2016, vocals of the song were interpolated in Friction's song "Dare (Hold It Down)". In 2017, the song was featured in an episode of the British soap opera EastEnders. The song was also featured in the video game Just Dance.


Music video


The music video for "Dare" included an appearance by Shaun Ryder (of Happy Mondays and Black Grape fame, at the request of Damon Albarn) as a giant disembodied head kept alive by machinery in Noodle's wardrobe. In a departure for the band, the song is mostly performed in the video by Noodle, with 2-D, Russel, and Murdoc only appearing in short cameos in the video; 2-D is seen listening into Noodle's room by pressing his ear to the floor, Russel is shown seated on a toilet reading a newspaper directly below Noodle's room and Murdoc appears at the end of the video lying in bed with Shaun Ryder, who wakes up, apparently having dreamt up the entire sequence of the video. A voice beside him growls, "go back to sleep, honey," revealing the voice to belong to Murdoc, after which it is further revealed to be another nightmare. That time, it was actually dreamt by Murdoc, who also wakes up bolt upright in his own bed gasping and panting.

In the commentary, Noodle claims that Murdoc initially protested her doing the entire video by herself, but she countered that she wrote the song and she had seen him show off too much in the "Feel Good Inc." music video. Additionally, Noodle adds that Murdoc was asleep in his Winnebago for the entirety of the shoot up until the final scene.

The video was directed by Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland. The video was leaked a few days prior to its 17 July 2005 release on the official Gorillaz website. The video was later recalled from other websites and the final scene was tweaked slightly; Murdoc's Confederate Naval Jack flag was replaced with that of the Jolly Roger. (The version with the Naval Jack is played in some countries, including Canada.)

This video calls back to classic horror movies. In the very beginning of the video we see Gorillaz' 'reject false icons' statue, which one may recognize as Pazuzu, the figurine from The Exorcist and son of the devil. Crows are flying around the building, in a tribute to Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. Shaun Ryder is depicted as a Frankenstein-like monster who is brought to life as the music begins. Amongst the contraptions that are part of the life support system appear to be two Atari joysticks and a Speak & Spell from the early 1980s. Ryder's head being kept alive is a reference to the movie The Brain That Wouldn't Die. The tube attached to Ryder's cheek switches from side to side as a tribute to the goofs commonly made in early horror movies. When we see Russel sitting on the toilet, he is holding a newspaper with a headline that reads CANNIBAL MASSAKREN, the Danish title of Cannibal Holocaust. The zoom on Noodle's eye at the end of the video is taken directly from Ringu and its American remake, The Ring.

«Dare» («挑 戦 (DARE)»), usualmente estilizada como «DARE», es una canción del grupo inglés Gorillaz del álbum Demon Days. Fue lanzado el 29 de agosto del 2005 como el segundo sencillo del álbum y se convirtió en el primer sencillo de la banda en alcanzar el #1 en la lista de sencillos del UK Singles Chart.[1] En las tiendas de música en línea como iTunes, la edición de radio de la canción fue lanzada el 20 de junio de 2005. DARE fue lanzado a EE. UU. a mediados de octubre. En el Billboard Hot 100, alcanzó el puesto #87 el 3 de enero de 2006 y alcanzó el puesto #8 en el Modern Rock Tracks el 21 de febrero de 2006. El comentarista de los Brit Awards 2006, dijo que la canción iba a ser originalmente llamada “It's There”, pero fue cambiado debido a un fuerte acento de Shaun Ryder, el líder de los Happy Mondays, que lo hizo sonar como si estuviera diciendo: “It's Dare”. Rosie Wilson asume el papel de Noodle de Miho Hatori, quien proporcionó su voz en el primer álbum. 2D proporciona coros, su voz fue rebajada siendo un poco cubierta por la de Noodle. La vocalización completa en 2D se pueden escuchar en el álbum de remixes D-Sides, el cual cuenta con una versión demo de la canción, titulado “People”. Esta versión contiene el mismo de fondo, mientras que carece de la mayoría de los teclados y los efectos en la grabación final. La diferencia de la versión final, es que People es totalmente cantada por 2D (Damon Albarn).

[ru] DARE (песня Gorillaz)

«DARE» — песня британской виртуальной группы Gorillaz, выпущенная в рамках наиболее успешного альбома коллектива «Demon Days» и как второй сингл альбома 29 августа 2005. Композиция была записана совместно с певцом Шоном Райдером и интересна тем, что основной вокал песни ведёт гитаристка группы Нудл, а не вокалист 2D, как это обычно происходит в треках Gorillaz. Песне удалось подняться до 87 позиции в US Billboard Hot 100 14 января 2006 года[5] и до 8 позиции в Modern Rock Tracks 4 марта 2006 года[5].
