According to the oral tradition of folk artists and some supporting information, Chaoyang English song originated in the Ming Dynasty.

There are three kinds of Yingge dance, one is the "rain in time that", one is the "rice-planting song that", one is "Nuo dance that".

"Just in time to say" is in the late Ming and early Qing Shaoxing scholar Zhang Dai's "Taoan Mengyi" book "just in time to say" section. This section describes the scene of seeking rain. According to Zhang Dai, it may be because Song Jiang, the elder brother of the heroes of the Water Margin, was nicknamed "timely rain".

The rice-planting dance is said to have been born out of the "big drums rice-planting song" of Shandong's Lubei province and the "willow-forest rice-planting song" of Lushi province. Because the pronunciation of Yingge and "Yangge" in Chaozhou dialect is relatively similar.

There is also a saying that the current Yingge is evolved from the ancient Nuo dance.
