Lifehouse's self-titled third album continues the group's brand of strong and sturdy rock, with a newfound maturity reflected in frontman and main songwriter Jason Wade's efforts. Besides having a hand in penning all 12 songs, Wade took the lead in creating the kind of subtle string arrangements that give "All in All" a very Beatlesque sheen. "Walking Away" delves into very personal territory for Wade, with lyrics seemingly aimed a former father figure. Also tying into this confessional detailing of teen abandonment are the churning "Blind," and "Better Luck Next Time." And while the mostly acoustic ballad "You and Me" reveals Wade's romantic side, the jangly "We'll Never Know" finds the Washington native forthrightly demanding faithfulness rather than fishing for it in a moon-eyed manner.

Lifehouse are a unique band. I love the way they incorporate several different instruments to get the rock feel. 'You and Me' is one of the best songs on this album - it is one of those songs when you wonder exactly what it is about. First you are sure you know, then you listen again and change your mind... in my opinion that is the mark of an excellent song. The lyrics must weave a web not so much tell a story.
Lifehouse lyrics are all like this - and this album is yet another of their greats.
this is lifehouses' third album, and they can still continue to produce some almazing rock, proving that these guys really are timeless, as they can just keep producing really popular music for all to love and enjoy. so many heartfelt tracks on here to enjoy and rock out to, such as Better Luck Next Time, whcih is one of my faves!
Great third album from these guys. The single "You and Me" is a beautiful song, and a fairly good representation of what to expect. "Blind" is a highlight, as well as "all in all" which inspite of being fairly short and simple somehow draws you in. Lyrically i connect with this album more than earlier releases, and musically it is great.
