Lovelife is the third and final album by British shoegazing act Lush. On this album, the band left their dream pop/shoegazing-styled music and went for a more Britpop-styled sound. The album was produced by Pete Bartlett and the band at Protocol Studios London, and engineered by Giles Hall.

Jarvis Cocker from Pulp sings a duet with Miki Berenyi on the song "Ciao!"
