Video premiere: Lifehouse's 'You and Me' live

Believe it or not, it's been 10 years since Lifehouse's tender ballad You and Me melted hearts and pervaded the airwaves, peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in summer 2005.

"It's really crazy to think about," says lead singer Jason Wade, 34, who used the song to propose to his wife, Braeden, years before it was included on the group's self-titled third album. After the track took off on radio and TV shows Grey's Anatomy and Smallville, "it really brought a second life to the band," following 2001 mega-hit Hanging by a Moment, Wade adds.

You and Me is just one of a handful of songs Lifehouse will play on music series Guitar Center Sessions this week (DirecTV, Fridays, 9 p.m. ET/PT). In the episode, the guys will sit down with host Nic Harcourt to talk about the history of the group and new album Out of the Wasteland, released last month. They will also perform Moment, latest single Hurricane and new material.

For Wade, Wasteland "was the most difficult (album) we've ever made," he says. After leaving Interscope Records, they took a two-year break from touring to work on new music — scrapping and starting over, and writing roughly 70 songs in the process. "At one point, I thought I was making a solo record," Wade says. But once he penned Hurricane and Flight, "those really sounded like quintessential Lifehouse songs, so I called the guys back into the studio and got really excited about making the album."

Guitar Center Sessions is now in its 10th season. Upcoming episodes include pop star Nick Jonas, singer/songwriter Jason Mraz, and rock bands The Offspring and Silversun Pickups.
