"Carrie Anne" is the name of a song that was recorded and released as a 7" 45 rpm single by the British pop band The Hollies. It became a hit in 1967, reaching #3 on the UK Singles Chart. It was also a hit in the US, peaking at #9 on the pop charts.

It was written by Allan Clarke, Graham Nash, and Tony Hicks. It may have been the first piece of pop music outside the Caribbean genre to feature a solo on steelpan. The solo begins approximately 2 minutes into the song.

In the 1995 documentary "The History of Rock 'N' Roll", Graham Nash claimed that the song was written for Marianne Faithfull, but he was too shy to use her actual name. The title was subsequently changed to the made up name Carrie Anne.Fact|date=November 2007

Actress Carrie-Anne Moss was named for this song, which was on the charts when she was born.
