Lifehouse is the third studio album by American rock band Lifehouse. It was released in March 2005 by Geffen Records, and preceded by the single "You and Me".
It debuted and peaked at number ten on the Billboard 200—selling 63,000 copies in its first week of release—and received gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on September 7, 2005. [5] [6] By November 2009, Lifehouse sold an estimated 960,000 units domestically, [7] and over three million units worldwide.[ citation needed ]
The album saw a notable shift in Lifehouse's sound. It was their first to be executive produced by American record producer Jude Cole, who had served as the band's talent manager since 2000. Lifehouse featured less angst-ridden post-grunge present in the band's previous two albums in favor of a lighter, more radio-friendly, adult contemporary pop rock sound; this would continue with each of the band's subsequent releases. The song "We'll Never Know" features a post-grunge flair, while the album's two lead singles, "You and Me" and "Blind", co-written and produced by Cole, respectively, both lean towards pop rock.
