This track I found, and I do like a bit, bugs the hell out of me.
For those that don't know the original Take 5 is a jazz number:

Now why does this bug me out, you might wonder?
Take 5 is not in 4/4.
The ska version clearly is ? I mean wtf.
Trying to wrap my head around how this can work.
Is it the pause they play, to fit it in an 8 count?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take_Five
"Take Five" is written in the key of E♭ minor, in ternary (ABA) form and in 5 4 time. Rhythmically, the five beats to the bar are split unevenly into 3 + 2 quarter notes; that is, the main accents (and chord changes) are on the first and fourth beats.
Take 5 in 4/4 wtf ?
