The Chordettes - "Mr. Sandman"

I guess this song's long been considered a cliche, but I still love it because the harmonizing is fantastic. My boyfriend never lets me forget that they're from his hometown of Sheboygan, WI. I guess that's worth bragging rights? It was a huge hit for them, 7 weeks at #1 in (I think) 1954.

Halloween fanatics like me always associate it with the closing credits of Halloween II.

I get chills every time I hear it because I always think of the scariest movie ever, "Halloween".

Oh, I know. I've seen and recorded all of them off the TV. When I hear this song, I just think of Michael Myers in general.
