The House of Love chose Daniel Miller and Gareth Jones to go into the studio with them to record “Safe,” which caught their record company stiffs off-guard. The Miller-Jones team was best known for work with Depeche Mode, and the sound that they obtained from the session was excellent but not what the long-hairs were expecting from a HOL record. In its live incarnation, the song follows the studio pattern closely, but with Guy opening up the vocals at the end. Magic from a Channel 4 recording.
