Scream If You Wanna Go Faster is the second studio album by British singer Geri Halliwell, released on 14 May 2001 by EMI Records.

Following the commercial success of her solo debut album Schizophonic two years before, the singer began working on its follow-up with producers such as Gregg Alexander, Rick Nowels, Stephen Lipson, as well as previous collaborators, the duo Absolute.

The album's artwork depicting Halliwell on roller skates, holding onto the back of a car, was criticised by road safety organisations, who said the singer was setting a wrong example to children.

Commercially, it attained moderate success, reaching the top ten in Greece, Italy and the United Kingdom, whilst being certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and became the 127th best selling album of 2001 in the latter region.

To promote Scream If You Wanna Go Faster Halliwell embarked on an extensive tour across the United Kingdom and Europe, performing on television shows such as Top of the Pops and festivals like Party in the Park and Popkomm.

She finished by saying that considering that Halliwell was banned from driving months before the album's release, she found it "very wrong of her to encourage this kind of thing".

[8] Mary Williams of road safety organisation Brake shared similar feelings, stating that, "Geri Halliwell is an icon for young children and our worry is that kids will be tempted to copy her.

Ian Sturgess from the Daily Mirror commented that Halliwell "has gone all out to make a record that's sassy, irreverent and brimming with down 'n' dirty attitude, but which ends up way off the mark".

[13] Jose F. Promis of AllMusic was more positive, noting that despite a few dull moments, the album was "diverse, uplifting, and fun through and through -- only the most hardened and cynical listener would be incapable of finding a song to tap their foot to".

[14] Another negative review came from Caroline Sullivan of newspaper The Guardian, who said that even in its "thoughtful" moments, it is "sunk by [its] production-line sound and Halliwell's limited range".

She performed several tracks of the album on television shows such as Top of the Pops,[29][30] and festivals like Festivalbar,[31] Party in the Park,[32] and Popkomm.

[33] Halliwell performed in July 2001 at annual fashion event Donna Sotto le Stelle in Rome to promote the album.

Despite low expectations from the record company,[36] and claims that radio stations would not add the track to their playlists,[37] the song debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart and stayed there for two weeks.

[23] The song was a huge success in France and was certified Diamond by the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP).

In the United Kingdom, it peaked at number eight, which became the lowest-charting single of Halliwell's career at the time, being considered a failure by British press.

It matched the moderate success of previous single, peaking at number seven in the United Kingdom, and reached better positions in Germany and Switzerland than the title track.
