I have to count it very fast to fit 6/8, seems very natural in 4/4 (one-and-a-two-and-a) and it sure as hell doesn't sound like a waltz to me, you'd have a hell of a time trying to dance a waltz to that song.

That was my thinking. However, Noel is absolutely correct, 6/8 it is and the video clip demonstrates this without question. The melody could be written in 4/4 and it would make sense but that is not the feel of the tune. my bad.

I expect that this subject has been debated once or twice over the past 50 years

That was SO cool! But when I printed out my MusicNotes copy Sleepwalk sheet music, it was in 6/8. Oh well.

Maybe this is why I gave up on music theory when I was a kid.

I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition! Well, it was quick googling so forgive me for throwing in a Satriani song.

I hate to say that, but that quick googleing ain't just accurate.

2/2: it's keyboads sheet music. Should be thought and played ternary (6/8)
6/8: That's it.
2/2: See above. Same stuff.
4/4: Hmm; not really, the part moves to 12/8 wich is just a pair of 6/8 mes.
4/4: That's a different song also called "sleep walk" ...google ;)
12/8: Same thing.

Anyway, that thong oughta be played the way you like.
