I can't believe that the last Andrews Sister, Patricia Andrews passed away Yesterday. She was 94 years old. She and the other Andrews Sisters did songs like "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy", "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else But Me)", "Rum and Coca-Cola", and "Hold Tight (Want Some Sea Food Mama".


I would like to share you a song performed by The Muppets, that was popularized by the Andrews Sisters in tribute to her death.

R.I.P Patricia Andrews (February 16, 1918- January 30, 2013)
She will be missed forever by fans everywhere. :cry:

Hm, I guess there were only 3, Buck Privates, In The Navy, and Hold That Ghost. I thought they were at the end of A&C meet the Mummy as well, in the club, but I may be getting that confused with the end of Hold that Ghost...

HaHa, ah youth....................... :smile:

In the 40's they were a singing sister act that did the USO circuit with Bob Hope and such. Very popular in their day, check them out on youtube....
