H/t to Neo-neocon who found this fabulous Supremes video at YouTube. Serendipity did the rest. Sadly, the Andrews Sisters were past their prime here, but they're still awesome, and the Supremes were young and perfect.

I always liked the Pied Pipers better-Jo Stafford, Sinatra-but the Andrews Sisters were good too. Of course Frank Sinatra wasn't a girl, so it wasn't a girl group strictly speaking, but you get the point.
Suzy Bogguss did a funny take-off on Mr. Sandman called Mr. Santa.
The best version of Mr. Sandman is probably the one by Janis Siegel of Manhattan Transfer.

She's wonderful. I worshipped Manhattan Transfer.
