Background and chart performance

"Because" was written by Jessica Mauboy, Dion Howell and Michael "Fingaz" Mugisha, and was mixed by Phil Tan.[1] Mauboy revealed that it is a break-up song about an ex-boyfriend of hers.[2] She told The Sydney Morning Herald, "at the time it happened, I couldn't talk to anyone about it. But definitely writing it just made me feel really free."[2] Mauboy has stated that "Because" is her favourite track off the album.[3]

"Because" debuted and peaked at number nine on the ARIA Singles Chart, becoming Mauboy's third top ten single on the chart.[4] It spent 11 weeks in the ARIA top fifty and was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for selling 35,000 copies.[5]

Music video

The music video for "Because" was directed by Mike Corte and David Murrell,[6] and premiered on YouTube on 29 May 2009.[7] The video opens with a drop of water evaporating from a large puddle then quickly cuts to a portrait shot of Mauboy looking towards the camera as she sings the lines, "It's all because." The next scene displays Mauboy standing on a thin layor of shallow water with pages of text individually floating in the air. Rain kicks in as it pours down on Mauboy and reoccurs throughout the video. The portrait shot also keeps recurring along with many objects falling into a puddle of water, such as a vase, a photo of Mauboy and her ex-boyfriend, and an ink container. Mauboy worked with stylist Michael Azzollini to create an ultra-glam Beyoncé-inspired look for the video.[2]
