Contents

Background

U;Nee started her singing career in 2003 with the album U;Nee Code , promoting the tracks "Go" and "Trick 2". [1] Call Call Call was her second album in 1 year and 6 months—recording finished in November 2004, and U;Nee spent the remaining time before release practicing dance. [2] After the album was repeatedly delayed, U;Nee developed depression, recalling that she questioned if being a singer was right for her; she was able to overcome the pressure through praying and visiting church. [1]

Composition

Call Call Call is primarily an R&B album. [3] It was produced by Jo Seong-jin, with U;Nee contributing lyrics for four of its tracks, including "Don't Cry Again" and "One". [4] [5] The title track, "Call Call Call", was composed by Park Seong-ho of Goofy; described as a "flashy dance song", [6] it combines R&B and dance-pop with K-pop sensibilities. [1] The following track, "Father", is a medium tempo hip hop song dedicated "to those who are going through hard times". [7] [1] The album also includes the bonus track "I Want You", a dance-pop song in the style of her debut album. [1]
