Nope, not me. I am familiar with much of Prince's work, but not that one.

Scott, are you the one who years ago told me that Prince’s “How Come You
Don’t Call Me Anymore” is fun to play?
I’m learning it. Slowly. It is so cool when I can string together even a
short segment of it.

99.99+% of western music uses four counts per measure. Some use two
(marches), some use three (waltz's), and most everything else uses four.
Almost nothing uses five. 7/8, where there's seven notes per measure, is
far more common than 5/4. Pink Floyd's "Money" is in 7/8.
Really there's only two or three pieces that anyone has ever heard of that
uses five: the theme from "Mission: Impossible", and Dave Brubeck's "Take
Five" (which is obviously self-consciously 5/4). That's it. There are
actually more pieces in 5/4 than that, but not that many. Holtz's "Mars"
is also in 5/4, although if you listen to it it's hard to make out any time
signature.
Anyway, you can add mine to the collection. There's more on the way.

I won't pretend to know what 5/4 means but it sounds cool.

I have made a new video. It is NOT a video game video. It's something
much more unusual.
Count to five.
