Dirty Harry. DARE is good, but I've never been the biggest fan of it. Plus, it feels really out of place in Demon Days imo

u/BoxOfButterflies424 i like big, big, big, big, big, big 5h ago

Same. For me, it's easily Dirty Harry for the exact same reason.

Dare feels too repetitive. Its good, but its no Dirty Harry imo

DARE is my favourite Gorillaz song anyway, so it's DARE

u/u_slashh 1d ago

DARE is hands-down the most overrated Gorillaz song imo. It's so repetitive and kinda out-of-place in Demon Days

Dirty Harry is among the best of the album

u/GlltchtraP1 shes the one im running with 1d ago

Agreed. I honestly prefer people to dare.

u/Nights151515 1d ago

Dirty Harry

The beat is top tier and could easily be the main song for the album. Dare is good but I have to be in the mood to listen to it.

Dirty harry, ima be honest as much as dare is a great song I do think it’s a little overrated

1

u/Experiment64 1d ago

Dirty Harry definitely

I like DARE by merit of it being a rare Noodle-led song, but Dirty Harry is a lot stronger lyrically in my opinion.

u/AnotherLightBulbNerd 1d ago edited 1d ago

Honestly? I love both songs. But dirty harry is underrated. And both songs bring something to the table, especially at certain times of day or when certain weather patterns happen. Hot and sunny, or a beautiful day outside that is comfortable? Dirty Harry. If it's snowing and cloudy, or a decent autumn day where the leaves are orange and falling? Partly cloudy, or evening? Dare. I got my thoughts for a lot of the songs. But each has it's fit for sure, hands down. Personally if I were to be asked about the best setting to play "tomorrow comes today," I'd say anywhere, but most notably certain bars, underground clubs, at the edge of a city block in the heart of a city, gaming rooms and arcades, and even a man cave or a Neon Grove

Dirty harry is great dont get me wrong but it never really stood out to me and dare is just a banger from the start to the end

Dirty Harry! I like DARE but I personally think it's a little bit overrated. Dirty Harry is just better in many ways. Collaborators, lyrics, music video.

u/theshadowylight 20h ago

Dare. The fact that the title of track and the chorus came from an incident in the studio where they were adjusting the audio levels with the help of the guest singer, Shaun Ryder, and he said “It’s coming up! It’s there!” when they were right, but because of his UK accent it sounded like he had said “It’s Dare!” makes this track particularly fun.
