In 1998, their second release 98° and Rising went 5x platinum and featured the classic chart-topping Top 10 singles "Because of You" and "
The Hardest Thing" and the classic wedding favorite "I Do (Cherish You)." Their third album This Christmas, released in 1998, went 5x platinum and spawned the Top 40 hit single "This Gift." This was followed by Revelation in 2000 which went 2x platinum. It featured the hit single "Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)," which became the most added Top 40 single in history, allowing the song to debut strongly at No. 2 in the Billboard 100 charts - becoming the highest-charting single in its debut week by a boy band during that time. 98° was also featured on Mariah Carey's chart-topper "Thank God I Found You" that same year. The group released a greatest hits album in 2002. "Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)" became the most added Top 40 single in history with 170 adds on radio in its initial week, allowing the song to debut strongly at No. 2 in the Billboard 100 charts, becoming the highest-charting single in its debut week by a boy band during that time.
