"Calling" was the third and last single from Geri Halliwell's second solo album. It was released on November 26, 2001. The song only peaked at number-seven because of the poor promotion. It sold around 66,000 copies and the 192nd best seller of 2001. The poor chart position greatly upset Geri; "Calling" was her favourite song on the album, and she thought it was a sure-fire number-one. Because of this, no further singles from Scream If You Wanna Go Faster were released. The song reached number twenty-five on the United World Chart based on Sales, Airplay & Votes in February 16th 2002 and spent 14 weeks inside the chart.^[1]
