take five

Age old colloquial way of saying relax, take it easy. Five means five minutes presumably.

Too much pressure writing definitions, gotta take five!

Take Five

A well-known jazz instrumental song by Dave Brubeck. Plays in 5/4 time signature.

I would like to learn how to play Take Five in piano, guitar, saxophone and drums! It's real catchy!
