I've ordered this CD and it hasn't come in yet, but I've heard the songs before. This is an awesome first import for the band. It contains: Hanging By A Moment, and three songs the band made when they were in their old group, Blyss: What's Wrong With That, Fool, and Fairy Tales and Sand Castles. These three songs are 3 great, upbeat songs that will put you in a good mood with their great lyrics. If you're a Lifehouse fan, this CD is a must!

Even if you already have Lifehouse's awesome album, I would still recommend that you get this single. "Fool" has become one of my favorite Lifehouse songs. There is just such an honesty and humility in Jason's lyrics and his performance of that track that really touches my heart. To me, it's about unrequited love, but like Jason himself has said, a song can mean a million different things to a million different people. As for "Fairytales Sandcastles" (that's how it's written on the CD--the title appears in a lot of different permutations everywhere), I think the lyrics are interesting and kind of poetic--like "candy-coated prison bars and chains that look like jewelry" and "there's a crack in his plastic crown and his throne of ice is melting..." I didn't think "What's Wrong with That" was as good at first, but I'm liking it more the more I listen to it. And what can you say about "Hanging By A Moment"? It's classic. You go to a show and everybody's singing along with that one. Also, if you're like me and can't get enough of Lifehouse, be sure to check out the soundtrack to the movie "Shrek" because Jason has a track on that one called "You Belong To Me" and it is so incredibly beautiful. I bought the whole CD just for that song.

Lifehouse's Hanging By A Moment has been my favorite song since the first time I heard it on the radio. It's a song that hooks you from the beginning, and never loses its play. In fact, all of the songs on Lifehouse's cd, No Name Face, has that same quality. I was glad to find more tracks by them on this import that was taken from Lifehouse's first hard-to-find (believe me) album. Fairytales Sandcastles is a superb song. With Jason's colorful lyrics and beautiful voice supplied by the band's instrumentals, the song sticks with you. As does Fool. It kind of follows in the vein of Hanging By A Moment, but there's a total difference. It's an awesome song, and has become one of my favorite Lifehouse songs. Sitting up there with Hanging By A Moment. What's Wrong with That is an excellent song, and proves that Lifehouse once again can make every one of their songs different and likeable. What can I say? I love this band. And will for years to come.

"Hanging By a Moment" is indeed a single that comes to life. This 4-song CD is not only worth 12 or 13 dollars of your money, but it's worth more. It will stand out in your collection- guarenteed.

This single contains three previously unreleased tracks from 'Blyss' which makes this single a gem! While all tracks are worthy of a mention, 'Fool' is the stand-out track and in my opinion which should have been included on 'No Name Face'. It has quickly become one of my (many) favourite Lifehouse tracks!
Since I live in Australia, I was fortunate to purchase this single cheaply. However, no matter the cost, this single is definitely worth its weight in gold.

No Name Face is by far the best album to be released this year. They cannot be compared to Creed or Pearl Jam because the lead singer doesnt always sound like either one of them, and sometimes the band plays rock, sometimes soft melodies, and numerous other types of music. I cannot have a favorite song off tha album because they are all amazing.

Lifehouse does quality music on every recording. In an age where most cds are comprised of 2 or 3 good songs and 10 "filler" pieces, their music is especially refreshing and inventive.

this CD is great it's got 3 new songs not on ''Life House's'' ''No Name Face'' plus the #1 smash hit single ''Hanging by a Moment'' from ''No Name Face'' this CD is great to buy if you already have ''no name face'' but if you don't have ''No Name Face'' you should buy it first ''No Name Face'' also has the hit singles ''sick cycle carousel'' and ''breathing'' so check them both out!

If you can, track this down for the B-side 'Fool'. The best song the band has ever recorded in my opinion, all serious Lifehouse fans should own this song. It is a shame it was not included on the album.

I love the song Hanging By A Moment. I heard on the radio and didn't understand the words but later the little boy I was watching started singing it he calles it "The number one song" That's actually what I thought it was called. But now I really want this CD.
