Loverama is the fifth album by the Australian band Custard. It was released in 1999, and was their last release for 16 years, until 2015's Come Back, All Is Forgiven. Some copies came as a two-CD set, with the companion disc called Custaro Musico.

Reviewed in Rolling Stone Australia at the time of release, it was noted that the album was less "zany" and more dance-oriented than previous releases, though the "puerile song titles and cock-eyed world view remain." Overall, the album was described as, "top-heavy with infectious ditties."[2]

"Girls Like That (Don't Go For Guys Like Us)", "Ringo (I feel Like...)" and "Hit Song" all featured in a Hottest 100, with Girls... in 1998[3] and the other two in 1999.[4]
