"House of Love" is a song by RuPaul, released as his third major-label single, and fifth single overall.
It was also released as the B-side to his dual-titled single "Supermodel (You Better Work)" on some versions of the single.
The song failed to enter the charts, and many[who?] suspected that it marked the end of RuPaul's music career, but his single "Snapshot" in 1996 reached #95 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #4 on the Hot Dance Club Play.

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

The single was released in various formats, though the most common was a UK CD single.

It is an anthem about welcoming all different types of people into your heart.
