"Citadel" is a song by English rock band the Rolling Stones, released as the second track on their 1967 album Their Satanic Majesties Request.
The chorus refers to actress Candy Darling and her friend Taffy, who the Rolling Stones had previously met at the Hotel Albert in New York City. According to Darling:
We met them in the Hotel Albert. We were on the floor above them and we dangled a bunch of grapes down on a string outside their window. You see, the Citadel is New York and the song is a message to us – Taffy and me.[2]
