Spoonman is indeed a good example. I would still say charting singles with odd time signatures is an uncommon occurrence, even in the 90s. I'd even call it very rare. Basically, if you take all the charting singles (even when taking just those from the 90s) and see how many percent have odd time signatures, I think you'd get a very low number
