"Dare" (stylized as "DARE" and "挑戦 (DARE)") is a song by English virtual band Gorillaz and is the second single from their second studio album, Demon Days (2005). The track features Happy Mondays and Black Grape frontman Shaun Ryder and is sung by Rosie Wilson (also known as Roses Gabor) with backing vocals from Damon Albarn. It peaked at number one on the UK Singles Chart in September 2005, becoming the band's only UK number one. "Dare" additionally reached the top 10 in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Iceland, Ireland, and New Zealand.
The CD single of "Dare" was released in the United Kingdom on 29 August 2005. It reached number one in the United Kingdom on 4 September 2005. In the US, it peaked at number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 14 January 2006 and at number eight on the Modern Rock Tracks chart on 4 March 2006.
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 studio 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!" and that originally there was no title to the track at all. In August 2019, Ryder told NME that the claim about the title being changed because of his accent was "an urban myth".
The video was directed by Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland.
