"Carmelita" is a rock song written by American singer-songwriter and musician Warren Zevon. The song was first recorded by Canadian singer Murray McLauchlan on his self-titled album of 1972. Zevon's own version was released four years later, in 1976, on his self-titled album (his 1974 demo version was included as a bonus track on the 2008 reissue of the 1976 album). Linda Ronstadt recorded a well-known version in 1977, and various covers have followed.
Zevon's version featured prominently in the 2004 film "Around The Bend" starring Christopher Walken, Michael Caine and Josh Lucas, and in the film "Looper" starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis, and Jeff Daniels.
