Recording for Is There Love in Space? took place from late 2003 to early 2004[2] and the title was announced on March 22, 2004.[6] Notably, Satriani sings for the first time since his self-titled 1995 album, Joe Satriani, on the songs "Lifestyle" and "I Like the Rain".
On December 4, 2008, a lawsuit was filed by Satriani accusing the band Coldplay of plagiarizing "substantial original portions" of his composition "If I Could Fly" on their 2008 song "Viva la Vida".[7][8] The case was dismissed by the California Central District Court on September 14, 2009, with both parties allegedly agreeing to an undisclosed settlement.[9][10]
