"I Love You – Life") is an album by alternative rock musician Matthew Sweet.

The New Yorker wrote that "songs like 'Morning Song' and 'Wait' find Sweet revisiting the rootsier side of Girlfriend, particularly in the generous use of slide guitar, and 'Love Is Gone' distills his best instincts with a lovely melody and aching harmonies.

"[7] No Depression wrote that the album "churns with immediacy, from power-pop gems 'Dead Smile' and 'The Ocean In-Between' to the dark, Cheap Trick-like 'Spiral' and the acoustic twelve-string jangler "Love Is Gone'.

"[8] The Rough Guide to Rock called it "a little less polished, but certainly [not] lacking in the great tunes and hooks department.

"[9] New York wrote that "it’s good to hear [Sweet] loosen up to the point where his perfectionism no longer suffocates his songs.
