About One Call Away

"One Call Away" is a song by American singer Charlie Puth for his debut album Nine Track Mind. It was released on August 20, 2015, by Atlantic Records as the second single from the album, after the lead single "Marvin Gaye". "One Call Away" is a gospel-infused pop soul song. It reached number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Puth's third top 40 single in the US and his third highest-charting single as a lead artist to date, behind "We Don't Talk Anymore" and "Attention".

According to Puth, the song came about during a songwriting camp that his record label set up. Puth was paired with a team and they failed to come up with a song in a week, disappointing the label, until DJ Frank E, who had previously worked with Puth on "See You Again", introduced him to "One Call Away" as a song idea. Puth stated that he "absolutely" needed to sing the song, despite having not written the chorus, and that he wrote the song's bridge in addition to "a couple of lines".
