Originally released in 1995, Jimmy Somerville’s Dare To Love stands as a powerful statement of pride, passion, and pop brilliance, carried by one of the most unmistakable voices in modern music.
Dare To Love embodies Somerville’s gift for marrying political conviction with irresistible melodies. Produced by Stephen Hague and other longtime collaborators, the album traverses bass-laden house grooves, slower, dubby reggae numbers and classic pop ballads.
Featuring the UK Top 30 hits Heartbeat and Hurt So Good, along with the poignant Safe in These Arms, Dare To Love explores love, loss, and identity, both on and off the dancefloor.
London Records celebrate 30 years of Dare To Love with a full remaster, putting the album on double CD, and features previously unreleased b-sides, rarities and remixes from the likes of Todd Terry, The Beatmasters and more.
