That guy's energy is bad. Don't disrespect Dave Brubeck. 🤓

[@FoolishFrankie]

LOLOLOL omggg😂😂😂😂

[@hogrider1046]

Don’t forget Paul Desmond🤓

[@lbb2rfarangkiinok]

​@@SammySlamma92desmond also wrote the song, just became popular on Brubeck's album

[@andrewjbsax]

i hate that loop makes me want to hurt myself

[@ElClásicodelos30s]

Yeah

[@Username5930-m7s]

The original is in 5/4 time signature but the syncopation made it fit in 7/4

[@thecringequeen31]

It’s a joke

[@applelandry4233]

It's THE joke

[@arleigh_camp]

the amount of people in the comments who genuinely didnt get this was a joke is kinda sad lol

[@WM_Nonsense]

Now it sounds like a spy theme

[@theflev-matic4892]

That syncopation slaps

[@jeriah1945]

I need this as sheet music, take five is such a bop

[@FoolishFrankie]

You should try learning it by ear! That’s how this music evolved :)

[@jeriah1945]

@@FoolishFrankie I know.. I’m working on being able to do stuff like that but I haven’t been playing jazz for more than like 4 months, it’s tough

[@FoolishFrankie]

@@jeriah1945 That's awesome!! It's definitely hard at first but I promise it gets easier the more you do it! Just keep working at it🔥

[@jeriah1945]

@@FoolishFrankie yeah, I’ve been doing jazz band for high school, I’d never played swing before but I love it

[@souravsuresh2766]

People are not able to get the joke. It’s of course in 5/4.

[@gallifreyandefense]

You very clearly started syncopating to fit into the 7:4 signature.

[@FoolishFrankie]

Yes this video is a joke

[@EvanPilb]

No way

[@johno8760]

No its literally the same thing. I'd also like to argue this song is in 4/4

Me too😂😂

[@praisewizor]

Take 7😂

[@cynthianichole2732]

😂 you had me for a second.

[@poliproductions9516]

I don’t think it is. You can hear that the sax player plays a slightly different rhythm in the 7 version.

[@RaileeLovesJazz]

i know ppl out their hating on u but i enjoyed ur playing and seeing ur reply to someone where u say to learn it by ear makes me kinda wanna groove with my friends with no sheet music (im a bass bone so it wont be too hard) so yea thank u for posting this :D

[@FoolishFrankie]

Thanks for watching:)

[@RaileeLovesJazz]

@@FoolishFrankie of course! ur an awesome jazz musician and sax player and i wanna be the bass bone version of u one day

[@pbabiesinspace6112]

It is 100% in 5. Source: The sheet music. And my ability to count to 5.

[@FoolishFrankie]

Yes this video is a joke

[@AlbertWolfe-p9v]

the song was written to be listened to in 5/4 but i mean. ofc you can just listen to it like that i guess 😭

[@lurksamagod1427]

Lol, you can literally see him count five beats at the start.

[@morpheus3190]

I actually think it sounds better in 7/4 than 5/4. Whatever sounds good either way. lol. Especially George Benson’s version live at Montreuix 1986 with Wantenabe. Listen to it Frankie and be amazed

[@deathrebel7543]

Bro I just got back to back videos on take five!

[@kuntaokid8908]

Literally just made a vid on take 5 lol. One of my favorite overplayed tunes

[@Kosher_20]

[@montycontrite9178]

You can't top Joe Morello's swing, this dude ruined it
