"Sally Cinnamon" is a song by the English rock band the Stone Roses, released in 1987 as their second single, before bassist Mani joined the band. The 7" version made its first album appearance in 1995, and the 12" version in 2002.
The single entered the UK Indie Chart in June 1987, spending thirty-nine weeks in the chart in total, peaking at number three. When re-released in 1989, it entered the UK Singles Chart, where it spent seven weeks, peaking at number 46.
When the single was re-released, the band refused to make a video for their former label, resulting in the label making a video which the band took objection to in January 1990, by trashing the offices of their former label by throwing paint and by throwing it over Paul Birch, as well as destroying several cars. This incident resulted in a court case that saw the band get off with a £6,000 fine and a ban from entering the premises of their former label.
