It debuted at #10 on the Billboard 200, selling 63,000 copies in its first week of release and was certified Gold by the RIAA on September 7, 2005.[5][6] Lifehouse has sold 960,000 units in the US as of November 2009,[7] and over three million worldwide to date. This album saw a shift in Lifehouse's sound as it featured less of the angst-ridden post-grunge sound of their first two albums, and a lighter, more radio-friendly adult pop-rock sound of later albums.
