I Dare You, out now through Atlantic Records, was written by Natalie Hemby, Laura Veltz and Ben West, with production handled by the singer's longtime collaborator Jesse Shatkin. It's an anthemic pop ballad with a dynamic soundscape dealing in playful beats, keys and guitar.
The song has been recorded as five multi-language duet versions. Zaz appears on the French version Appelle Ton Amour, Faouzia on the Arabic كنتحداك, Blas Canto on the Spanish Te Reto A Amar, Glasperlenspiel on the German Trau Dich and Maya Buskila on the Hebrew Version בוא נראה. Clarkson said:
“This is my favorite/hardest project that I’ve ever worked on. It has always been a dream of mine, as I grew up singing in different languages, to find that perfect song, with the perfect message, to connect us all globally and then record that song with several other artists around the world in their native languages. We have put a lot of work into this as a team and decided to continue with our release date of this project because we feel like we all couldn’t be more connected right now across the world, and maybe this message will bring a little hope in this sometimes dark, and isolating time. Thank you so much to all the artists that worked on this with me. We hope everyone out there connects with this message and chooses love instead of fear. I dare you.”
