Love Life is the fifth studio album by Japanese singer hitomi, released on December 13, 2000, by avex trax.
Following the 1999 amicable split with her previous producer Tetsuya Komuro, hitomi was able to take more creative control of her album production.
This is evidenced on Love Life by the large collaborative efforts of hitomi with her recording engineers Tetsuya Morimoto, Takeshi Hara, Hiroyuki Shiotsuki, Naoki Yamada, Tohru Oka, and Motohisa Shiraishi.
Love Life was a strong commercially successful album selling over 766,000 copies in Japan and reaching #2 on the Oricon weekly charts.
[citation needed] This is the album that later gave the name to the production sub label Love Life Record created by hitomi in 2005.
