Read the comments in The Stranglers' Golden Brown, possibly derived from QMS' Silver and Gold, probably derived from Brubeck.
 
Also, Jonathan Richman's "Walter Johnson," which someone at a concert was trying to clap along with and he stopped and said, "It ain't 4:4" She didn't get it so someone told her "no clapping!"

What do you call pop songs, and what's the problem with 4/4 ?

Try Captain Beefheart, Mahavishnu Orchestra & King Crimson.

But I wouldn't call any of them 'pop'.
