"V", originally titled "Ecstatic Fanatic", is Live's fifth album, released in 2001.

Featuring the singles "Simple Creed" and "Overcome" (the latter of which received significant exposure following 9/11), "V" nonetheless reflected Live's continued commercial fall-off, reaching only #22 on the album charts at home, and failing to even reach gold, despite reasonably positive reviews.

The remix of "Deep Enough," which is a hidden track on this album, was featured in the movie "The Fast and the Furious". Additionally, "Forever May Not Be Long Enough" appears on the soundtrack to "The Mummy Returns" and plays during the end credits of the movie, and "Overcome" appeared in the FX Network television show "The Shield".
