Dare Me - The Pointer Sisters - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Released in 1985, "Dare Me" was a major hit for The Pointer Sisters, featured as the lead single from their platinum-selling album Contact. Written by Sam Lorber and Dave Innis, the song blends dance-pop and R&B influences with a confident, flirtatious edge. June Pointer's commanding vocals challenge a potential lover to "dare" to make a move, matching the song’s daring and high-energy vibe. Peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, "Dare Me" also reached number 1 on the U.S. Dance Club Songs chart, solidifying its status as a dancefloor anthem. Internationally, the track hit the Top 20 in countries like Canada, Australia, and the UK. The song's music video, set in a boxing gym, adds a playful visual twist, showing The Pointer Sisters in male drag as they spar with professional boxer Mark Breland. "Dare Me" marked one of the group’s final major hits of the 1980s, and it remains memorable for its catchy rhythm, bold lyrics, and infectious dance beat. It was later reimagined in 2004 as "Stupidisco" by Junior Jack, extending the song's influence on dance music.
