Lovelife is the fourth and final studio album by English alternative rock band Lush. On this album, the band moved away from their earlier dream pop and shoegazing style and embraced a more Britpop-oriented sound. The album was produced by Pete Bartlett and the band at Protocol Studios in London, and engineered by Giles Hall. On release it reached number 8 on the UK album charts.
Jarvis Cocker from Pulp sang a duet with Miki Berenyi on the song "Ciao!" Lead singer Miki Berenyi revealed in 2017 via Twitter to a fan that the track "Heavenly Nobodies" was about her and a friend's star struck encounter with Hole frontwoman Courtney Love. She also added that the song was not intended as a dig towards her.
