At the end of the video, she crosses the street. The autoshop is no longer there, however, the rest of the street looks the same...

These are great shots. Are they in L.A.? Which street? Also, some guy once told me that "Borderline" was L.A. because he came from there and vaguely recognized it. And where are the shots from "Open Your Heart" taken? L.A.? Street? I want to visit them on Google Maps. I've never been to L.A., so I can't recognize anything. Thanks for posting these!

I know this is a few years old and all, however, was wondering if by chance you would know the location of the church in "La Isla Bonita." It's marked 0:31 on the vid. Just before the phase into sunset.
ReplyDeleteSeems not to be in North America, I think it is in Puerto Rico or Dominican Republic, is very old and typical...
DeleteIt is in San Pedro
DeleteThe church ⛪ is in San Pedro
DeleteThe church, and buildings around, are really the Goyeneche Palace in Nuevo Baztán, Spain.
