Abstract
“Rose, Rose, I Love You” is a very important representative of early Chinese popular music. This paper applies the method of historical research to analyze “Rose, Rose, I Love You” in a specific historical and cultural context through four dimensions: song background, songwriter, music analysis, and historical evaluation. This paper tries to partly reflect the creation ecology, creation style, and characteristics of early Chinese popular music through the case of “Rose, Rose, I Love You.”
