They sang THIS hit in 1958. When I hear it 60 years later? Oh, the memories

You’ve heard it in a million TV shows and commercials, but have you ever seen the real thing?“Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream.

Make him the cutest that I’ve ever seen.” The year is 1958. Eisenhower is the President, and rock-and-roll as we know it is starting to take shape.

 

But don’t tell that to the Chordettes. The harmonizing girls from Sheboygan–Janet, Alice, Lynn, and Jinny—wowed the airwaves with their mostly a cappella renditions of “Mr. Sandman” and “Lollipop.”
