3 is the third studio album by American hard rock band FireHouse. It was released in 1995 on Epic Records. It featured a softer sound than their previous two albums, although unlike many glam metal bands at that time, Firehouse unlikely did not change its original glam metal sound despite the domination of grunge rock and alternative rock in the mainstream music industry by the time of the album's release.

It spawned the hit signature power ballad in "I Live My Life for You", despite the album not selling as well as previous releases. Nevertheless, the album was placed 66th in Billboard Top 100, and certified gold in other countries.
The band toured extensively in Asia, Argentina and Brazil to support the album.
All songs written by Bill Leverty and C.J. Snare.
