Dare!

Dare is the third studio album by the English synth-pop band the Human League, first released in the United Kingdom in October 1981 and then subsequently in the US in mid-1982. The album was produced by Martin Rushent and recorded between March and September 1981, following the departure of founding members Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh, and saw the band shift direction from their previous avant-garde electronic style toward a more pop-friendly, commercial sound led by frontman Philip Oakey. Dare became critically acclaimed and proved to be a genre-defining album, its influence being felt in many areas of pop music. The album and its four singles were very successful, particularly "Don't You Want Me", which both Rolling Stone and The Village Voice credited with kickstarting the Second British Invasion. The album reached number one on the UK Albums Chart and has been certified triple platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. A remix album based on Dare, named Love and Dancing, again produced by Rushent was released in 1982.
