Jean Harlow sang the original melody in 1933 written be Rodgers and Hart. The lyrics were suited for a prayer she was to sing. They later changed the lyrics and title to give it more commercial flair, and added punch. Connee Boswell was one of the first people, if not the first person, to sing it with the new lyrics.

Why do things happen in a blue moon?

The term "blue moon" comes from folklore. Different traditions and conventions place the extra "blue" full moon at different times in the year .In calculating the dates for Lent and Easter the Clergy identify the Lent Moon. It is thought that historically when the moons timing was too early, they named an earlier moon as a "betrayer moon" (belewe moon), thus the Lent moon came at its expected time.Folklore gave each moon a name according to its time of year. A moon that came too early had no folk name, and was called a blue moon, retaining the correct seasonal timings for future moons .The Farmers Almanac defined blue moon as an extra full moon that occurred in a season; one season was normally three full moons. If a season had four full moons, then the third full moon was named a blue moon.Recent popular usage defined a blue moon as the second full moon in a calendar month, stemming from an interpretation error made in 1946 that was discovered in 1999. For example, December 31, 2009 was a blue moon according to this usage.A "blue moon" is also used colloquially to mean "a rare event", reflected in the phrase "once in a blue moon". The most literal meaning of blue moon is when the moon (not necessarily a full moon) appears to a casual observer to be unusually bluish, which is a rare event. The effect can be caused by smoke or dust particles in the atmosphere, as has happened after forest fires in Sweden and Canada in 1950 and 1951
