Wikipedia article




"'House of Love'" is a 1993 song by American drag queen RuPaul, released as his third major-label single, and fifth single overall from his debut album, 'Supermodel of the World'. It did not chart in the US as it was previously released as a Double A-Side to the 1992 single "Supermodel (You Better Work)". It did however reach the Top 40 in the UK.

Critical reception



Music writer James Masterton wrote in his weekly UK chart commentary, that "House of Love" is "an unremarkable bit of disco pop that is unliklely really to progress much further - however sexy he may look on the sleeve." Alan Jones from 'Music Week' said "this is RuPaul's finest song", adding, "a charming, mid-tempo house groove, House Of Love is currently thriving on the club circuit thanks to mixes by T-Empo and Eric Kupper. It should now steer its way into the Top 40." James Hamilton from the magazine's 'RM' Dance Update deemed it a "jiggly pleasant singalong".

Versions



The "Supermodel (You Better Work)" CD single featured three versions of "House of Love".

# "House of Love" (7" Radio version)

# "House of Love" (12" version)

These tracks were the last three tracks on the CD single.

The single was released in various formats, though the most common was a UK CD single. The song itself is typical of early 1990s' house music; the theme of the song expounds on RuPaul's early persona of the "drag queen with a heart of gold". It is an anthem about welcoming all different types of people into your heart.
