The song was released on the Cadence Records label. According to the Mr. Sandman Songfacts, the chorus features a circle of fifths followed for six chords in a row within the chorus' chord progression. The single reached number 1 on the Billboard United States charts and number 11 on the United Kingdom charts in 1954.
Later in the same year versions of the song were released by Max Bygraves and The Four Aces. Since then the song has been covered by several artists, notably by Emmylou Harris, Chet Atkins, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes,The Puppini Sisters and Blind Guardian.
Mr Sandman has also featured in a number of Films.
In 1981 in the slasher film Halloween II, in 1989 in the film Uncle Buck, in the 1982 movie Grease 2 and in 1993 in the movie Philadelphia.
The song is used in the film "Cry Baby" starring Johnny Depp but the lyrics are changed to reflect the parody of the film. It was also played in the film Back to the Future Part I and Back to the Future Part II when Marty McFly time travels back to 1955.

Overall Meaning

The song "Mr. Sandman" by The Chordettes is a plea to the mythical figure of Mr. Sandman, who is traditionally believed to bring dreams to people while they sleep. The singer in the song is feeling lonely and asks Mr. Sandman to bring her a dream, a dream where she has someone to call her own. She desires someone who is cute and has lips like roses and clovers. The plea is also for Mr. Sandman to tell her future dream partner that his lonely nights are over. The song ends with a request from a group of people for Mr. Sandman to bring them dreams of someone to hold, with a pair of ‘come-hither’ eyes and a lonely heart.

@jacquelinedavis6607

@@therobloxgroup1262Hi! I was born in 1956 so that makes me 69. I bet you see that as a terribly old woman whose brain is not thinking now. I remember when my daughter was in college. She was born in 1987, so that would put her in college around 2003, because I remarried in 2005. When she was in college, she kept talking about Facebook online. I investigated and thought it was a great idea. But, she kept telling me it was only for her age to keep in touch. Like I believed that. At school at my grade level, I was in charge of computer matters. I can't remember if we were still using floppy discs. But, I was writing poems and sending them by E-mail to our newspaper. Please realize I am using YouTube this very minute. But, I prefer Instagram so I can keep up with people in Scotland and in different places in the United States.
As a person ages, it is very important to challenge your thinking process. I read books and on TV a channel called BritBox. There are so many detective shows and other quite interesting shows that are funny. I hope you have a wonderful week. Remember, it's not your age that matters, but how you use your brain.

@@JayNohh Listen to the song Then He kissed Me, by the Crystals. That has 'soul;' it is when the harmony is slightly off and you get a 'beat.' frequency

But for me i knew about Mr. Sandman because i grew up in a family that listened to a lot of western music, so I was exposed to it early on. Growing up, my curiosity made me dig even deeper online and that’s how I discovered more vintage tracks. In many African countries, especially back then, some of this music wasn’t really mainstream then but western music became more common from the late '90s and up. Some people might have known but just a few.

My great grandfather recalls a spring afternoon in 1954 he was laying down having a nap and this song played on the radio as he woke up, he said he felt like he was back in France during WW2, he settled down in a convent where nuns sang to his platoon while they awaited orders to move into the Ardennes.. their voices he said, angelic and soothing..

This song reminds me of my nan and granddad, and my granddad passed away sadly. I think that's the reason I love it, because it reminds me of them. 🖤

Woah RapMonnn It reminds me of being about 6 or 7 years old and my Mom singing this to me. I still miss her a lot too and it's been over 30 years, but I'll take those memories to my grave.
