With Who We Are, their fourth Geffen album in seven years, Lifehouse, all still in their mid-20's, are really starting to enjoy the fruits of their success and have some fun.  On Who We Are, singer-songwriter Jason Wade-along with drummer Rick Woolstenhulme and bassist Bryce Soderberg-gets back to the basics of what made him first form the band while still a teenager in suburban California... The wrenching ballad "Broken", with a chorus that recalls the Police's "Every Breath You Take", came out of a trip Wade took to Nashville to visit a dear friend waiting on a kidney transplant, as once again he identifies in first person: "I'm falling apart/I'm barely breathing/With a broken heart/That's still beating/In my pain/There is healing/In your name/I find meaning/So I'm holding on/Barely holding on to you."
