Hey There!
Since I Dare You was from Shinedown's acoustic tour in Kansas city, it was still around July 2015 when I came across this song, because I was still off school for summer, and casually checking out as many new Shinedown songs as I could, especially from their live album Somewhere In The Stratosphere.
After going for a long time without knowing the trues meaning to I Dare You, despite writing about the lyrics in two other posts back in April/May 2015, when I listened to the introduction to I Dare You, Brent Smith told the audience that it was written about a friend who was a firefighter, who decided to train himself to become a firefighter, and he had an amazing and inspiring willpower!
The introduction to the live acoustic version of I Dare You is incredible. I just love how it blends so well together. There is a lovely guitar strumming, and it is all in time really well with the simple drum beat. All-in-all, it sounds brilliant, and this style of introduction is carried in the first part of the song until the chorus. I am also a massive fan of this chorus because the vocals in it are amazing, and so fab to sing along to.
Furthermore, the bridge later into the song is also a classic! Honestly, there are so many different aspects to this live acoustic version that I'm really struggling to find a favourite part to it!
From the truly amazing introduction, the simple guitar plucks that sound brilliant alone have solely made me want to learn this beat on my guitar, not to mention even singing along to this song, because that would be incredible!
Thank you so much to you all who have stuck by these blog posts of mine, and I hope to hear from you all soon!
I'll see you all next Thursday!

P.S. I'll leave the lyrics to I Dare You - Live Acoustic From Kansas City below incase you're interested.
Hello, let me introduce you to
The characters in the show
One says yes, one says no
Decide - which voice in your head you can keep alive
Even in madness, I know you still believe
Paint me on canvas so I become
What you could never be
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello, are you still chasing
The memories in shadows
Some stay young, some grow old
Come alive, there are thoughts unclear
You can never hide
Even in madness, I know you still believe
Paint me on canvas so I become
What you could never be
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello
Hello...
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello...
Hello...
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
The characters in the show
One says yes, one says no
Decide - which voice in your head you can keep alive
Even in madness, I know you still believe
Paint me on canvas so I become
What you could never be
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello, are you still chasing
The memories in shadows
Some stay young, some grow old
Come alive, there are thoughts unclear
You can never hide
Even in madness, I know you still believe
Paint me on canvas so I become
What you could never be
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello
Hello...
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
Wear my soul and call me a liar
I dare you to tell me to walk through fire
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
Hello...
Hello...
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
I dare you to tell me
I dare you to
