This video was made using MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 17 HD.
I have changed the aspect ratio in this upload from 4:3 to 16:9. I had wanted the other video to have a vintage look about it, but I do also like the video done in this manner. I hope you will like it. (^_^)

As a rule, I try to put the lyrics to the song I am featuring in a video on the screen. However, this time, the format I have used with which to tell this story make it impossible to situate the lyrics on screen without ruining the look of the video. So, I am putting those lyrics here in the description area.

Dare – We Were Friends - Lyrics

There were times we could never say no
There were times the cold wind will blow, yeah, yeah.
And I wonder where you are tonight?
Do you ever really think about the times, I believed in you?

We were friends but how we soon forget
And I was wondering how you are
And the words we never said
Were locked inside your head, for the rest of your life

Did you know that nothing stays the same?
Have you heard the bird has flown
And I'll dream the dream for you
The way you asked me to
For the rest of my days
Can you hear the last song is over?
Just another day that's gone

And I'll watch the sun go down
You broke your precious crown,
with your own bare hands

Now the endless trial is over
We had before the trial was done
I heard the cries of false devotion
and you were gone

We were friends but how we soon forget
And I was wondering how you are, my friend
And I'll dream the dream for you
The way you asked me to
Before I die, before I die
That was then, a long, time ago

We were friends but how we soon forget
And I was wondering how you are, my friend
And I'll dream the dream for you
The way you asked me to
Before I die

We were friends, mm We were friends yeah
We were friends, we were friends

Dare is a Rock band from Oldham, England, fronted by Thin Lizzy keyboard player Darren Wharton. They formed in 1985, and have released eight albums to date, including the #48 UK album Blood from Stone.

Dare was formed in 1985 by Darren Wharton after Thin Lizzy had broken up. By 1987, Dare had gained a local following in Oldham and they were offered recording contracts from A&M, RCA and MCA Records. The band's debut album, Out of the Silence, was released in 1988 on A&M Records. Dare had minor success in Europe, but album sales flagged and the band was dropped from their label after their second album Blood from Stone (1991).

The band have had four songs in the UK Singles Chart: "The Raindance" (#62, 1989), "Abandon" (#71, 1989), "We Don't Need a Reason" (#52, 1991) and "Real Love" (#67, 1991).

The band continues to this day, but have departed from their hard rock and melodic rock roots, and now feature a heavy Celtic influence.

The original lineup featured Brian Cox who played keyboards on the records Out of the Silence and Blood From Stone. Cox later played with D:Ream before becoming a particle physicist and science communicator.

Dare appeared at the Firefest Festival in October 2010 and are set to appear again this year.
