You're gonna have to face it you're addicted to love. #threetunetuesday from the city of Madrid

Three tunes so loose, so disconnected as we visit the city of Madrid. From the rooftop, some great panoramic views of the city of Madrid, brought to mind a classic track from my youth. It's one of those 2:00am in the morning tracks just before the disco closes, when drunken boy meets drunken girl and the rest as they say is history.

Modern buildings reaching new heights in the distant haze, where once stood no doubt majestic old buildings with charachter and history, global gentrification continues.

Classic soul music from 1962, The Drifters

Balconies

Somewhere down on the ground in the metropolis the city and its residents live their daily lives, gaily decorating and bringing to life their balconies. City living, no gardens.

Ah the good old looky looky men, usually found on the seafront on the Costas. Snide rip off gear laid out on a tarpaulin, see how they hold the ropes...if they get a signal from their watchers that plod is about , a quick pull and they disappear into the crowds. these guys are always good if you want some Raay Banns, or a Goochie hand bag

The cult of the jehovah witnesses requires adherence to a strict moral code, which forbids premarital sex, homosexuality, gender transitioning, adultery, smoking, drunkenness and drug abuse, and blood transfusions. That's me fucked then on a number of issues.

No wonder they were staring and tutting in disgust at a couple of normal people.

Shite mummsy crap from the late 70's, what a contrast to the memorable girls in shiny rubber. He should hang his head in shame.

The pleasure is all mine and I would look for a roof, but rooftops are closed around here, so no chance.

I really like the photos. Street photography is usually fun, and I like the interspersed songs. Robert Palmer had such a great voice; I miss him.
