House of Blue Light was only available as the B-side to the single of the legendary
We Didn’t Start the Fire released on September 27, 1989. It is the second instance of a Billy Joel single being backed by a non-album track (the other one being
Elvis Presley Boulevard). It now officially appears only on Disc 2 of the My Lives Compilation Album. It is what one critic called, "a blues song like the kind seen in a Hollywood approximation of a blues club".
