"Because of You" is a 1998 song by 98 Degrees, released as the second single from their album 98 Degrees and Rising. It peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum in December 1998. The album version of the song was featured on the 1999 compilation album Now That's What I Call Music! 2.
The video directed by Wayne Isham takes place in San Francisco, where it follows a girl holding a postcard of the Golden Gate Bridge, while looking around the city by bus, taxi and trolley. The boys are seen on billboards. They are also seen on the beach, in a garden of flowers, and on the Golden Gate Bridge. The video utilized a special visual effect that combined quick zooming and morphing, an effect Isham had used in a previous video for Will Smith and would use in later music videos for Bon Jovi, Ricky Martin, NSYNC, and Metallica.
