The Transformers: The Movie insert song
"Dare"
Performed by: Stan Bush
Written by: Vince DiCola and
Scott Shelly
Arranged by: Vince DiCola
Produced by: Vince Dicola and
Richie Wise

"Dare" is a song by Stan Bush, featured on the 1986 album The Transformers: The Movie - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. Along with "The Touch", it is one of two songs performed by Stan Bush included in The Transformers: The Movie.

It plays early in the movie; after Hot Rod and a moody Daniel have a brief conversation concerning Spike's prolonged absence, Daniel receives a signal indicating that an Autobot shuttle is about to land nearby. As his spirits are raised by these news, "Dare" begins to play, accompanying the duo's race to "lookout mountain", until Hot Rod notices a group of Decepticon using the Shuttle as a means to ambush Autobot City. It reprises later when the Autobots storm Unicron, crashing through his eye.

Lyrics

Sometimes when your hopes have all been shattered
There's nowhere to turn
You wonder how you keep going
Think of all the things that really mattered
And the chances you've earned
The fire in your heart is growing

You can fly, if you try, leaving the past behind
Heaven only knows what you might find

Dare
Dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare
Dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win if you dare

Everybody's trying to break your spirit
Keeping you down
Seems like it's been forever
There's another voice, if you'll just hear it
Saying it's the last round
Looks like it's now or never

Out of the darkness you stumble into the light
Fighting for the things you know are right

Dare
Dare to believe you can survive
The power is there at your command
Dare
Dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win if you dare
Dare
Dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare
Dare to keep all of your dreams alive
The power is there at your command
Dare
Dare to keep all your love alive
Dare to be all you can be
Dare
There is a place where dreams survive
It's calling you on to victory
Dare
Dare
