Topic: Time signatures

Can anyone confirm that the first part of the intro to "Whatever you want" by Status Quo is in 12/8(before it breaks into the 4/4)?

I would say the opposite...
The slow intro is in a fairly straight 4. Once the song gets going it is in the standard 12/8 (or "4/4 with triplets" depending on your point of view).
