Calling is a song originally from The World Ends with You Original Soundtrack sung by Leah, with lyrics by Sawa and was composed and arranged by Takeharu Ishimoto.

Calling was remixed for the Subarashiki Kono Sekai + The World Ends with You album and was called Calling -1960s-.

It was again remixed by Ishimoto for Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance with the name Calling -KINGDOM MIX- as part of Subarashiki Kono Sekai -Crossover-. As a part of that same album, Calling was featured alongside Twister and Hybrid in Twister -Crossover-. In The World Ends With You Final Remix, a live version of the Kingdom Mix and Twister Crossover was included titled CALLING - KINGDOM MIX (Live Ver.) and Twister - Crossover (Live Ver.).

In Subarashiki Kono Sekai Crossover ~Tribute, a very techno version was remixed as Calling (T$UYO$HI Remix).

Within The Death March, Calling (The Death March) was created which is a much more downbeat, almost depressed version of the song.

Both the original and 1960s versions were updated in The World Ends With You Final Remix.

In NEO: The World Ends with You, a remix of the original appears and plays in the overworld after the final party member joins.

Lyrics
Calling
You hear the
Calling

Calling
You hear the
Calling
Let me go
Gravity
What’s on my shoulder
“Little by little, I feel a bit better”
Let me know
Set me free
I feel a bit older
Just once more unto the breach
“Dear friend, once more”
Wake up
Leave your hesitation
Wake up
Time for us to realize
Wake up
Show appreciation
Wake up
Time for us to realize
Calling
Someone is
Calling
Wait and see
Empathy
You’re not the only one
“Little by little you’ll feel a bit better”
Lucky me
Destiny
You are on my side
Just once more unto the breach
“Dear friend, once more”
