Furthermore, the songwriting is rock solid, placing emphasis on being unafraid to love as opposed to fear. The chorus leads the charge:

“I dare you to love
Oh, I dare you to love
Even if you’re hurt and you can only see the worst
Even if you think it’s not enough
Oh, I dare you to love.”

Adding to the terrific nature, fit for a Terrific Tuesday, are the sound and production.  “I Dare You” possesses a tried-and-true pop sound, with a hint of electronic cues thrown in, particularly the chorus. Kelly Clarkson is a bop unto herself.  On “I Dare You, ” all boxes are checked off – hot vocals, uplifting songwriting, and solid pop production.  This is exactly the motivation one needs to have a Terrific Tuesday, or any terrific day for that matter.
