Is This the Life We Really Want? Is This the Life We Really Want? (stylised as is this the life we really want?) is the fifth studio album by English rock musician and former Pink Floyd bassist and vocalist Roger Waters, released on 2 June 2017 by Columbia Records. It is his first solo album in nearly 25 years since "Amused to Death" (1992), as well as his first studio album in 12 years since "Ça Ira" (2005). On 20 April, the single "Smell the Roses" was released.
Lifehouse (rock opera) Lifehouse was a science fiction rock opera by the Who intended as a follow-up to "Tommy". It was abandoned as a rock opera in favour of creating the traditional rock album "Who's Next", though its songs would appear on various albums and singles by the Who, as well as Pete Townshend's solo albums. In 1978, aspects of the Lifehouse project were revisited by the Who on "Who Are You". In 2000, Townshend revived the Lifehouse concept with his set "Lifehouse Chronicles" and the sampler "Lifehouse Elements". On 1 May 2007, Townshend released online software called "The Lifehouse Method" in which any "sitter" could create a musical "portrait". The site is now defunct.
