@DanMorgan Ironically, the most iconic of the songs in 5/4 (and other seemingly unusual signatures) was written by … Paul Desmond ;)

@DanMorgan Sorry, nerd, that's Paul Desmond's song you've got bouncing around in your head 🤓 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Desmond

@DanMorgan Who is the bigger nerd? The music nerd or the star wars nerd?
-
@lastdinosaur@lastdinosaur.club 2026-05-04 16:36
@DanMorgan@vmst.io star wars is about the least nerdy, most pop-cultury thing there is for the past 2 decades.

@DanMorgan I heard the first four attempts to get this picture were scrapped, but they finally got it on... Take Five.

@DanMorgan Also, if we are naming famous tunes in 5/4, Mars from Gustav Holst's The Planets is a notable one.

@DanMorgan As both a science fiction nerd and a music nerd, I have to say: pot, meet kettle.

Sorry to say, but in most of the world, 5/4 is the 5th of April. Dave Brubeck by all means earned his day. It was just about a month ago 😉 You can keep Star Wars though scnr
