Yes, but Duncan doesn't know the definition of ska, he's just babbling. He 
might as well have said "ooh ee ooh a a, ting tang, wallawalla bing bang" which 
in some South American languages means, "bring me my bong and change the water".

Which is definately off topic. We must be firm.

(my spell checker blew up with that one)

  Ska is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s and was a 
precursor to rocksteady and reggae.[1]

  Ska combined elements of Caribbean mento and calypso with American jazz and 
rhythm and blues. It is characterized by a walking bass line, accented guitar 
or piano rhythms on the offbeat, and in some cases, jazz-like horn riffs. In 
the early 1960s, ska was the dominant musical genre of Jamaica, and it was also 
popular with British mods. Many skinheads, in various decades, have also 
enjoyed ska (along with reggae, rocksteady and other genres).[2][3][4][5] Music 
historians typically divide the history of ska into three periods: the original 
Jamaican ska scene of the 1960s, the 2 Tone ska revival that started in England 
in the late 1970s, and the third wave ska movement, which started in the 1980s.
