It appears in the Warner Brothers musical film 42nd Street, for which Warren and Dubin wrote three songs together.[2] The song was inspired by one of the women working at the Warner Brothers studio. When asked why she was still dating a certain man, she said that he was “getting to be a habit with her”.[4] In the movie, it is sung by the leading lady Dorothy Brock, played by Bebe Daniels.[1]
The song was recorded by Guy Lombardo with Bing Crosby on vocals on January 12, 1933[5] and reached #1 in the charts.[6] Crosby also included the song in the short film Please (1933). Another hit recording of the song in 1933 was by Fred Waring and His Pennsylvanians.[7] The song was again performed by Doris Day in the musical Lullaby of Broadway in 1951.[8] Since then it has been performed by a large number of artists.
