Not him, but only the singing is in triplets, the instrumentation is in common time/rhythms
how do you tell what time signature a song is in?
>>66239327
literally just by counting to it
The song is clearly in 23/16 you dingus.
>every top 40 pop song is in 64/64

tap your foot or clap your hands niggy
Definitely 4/4. Pretty easy to tell when they say Spongebob Squarepants
>>66238258
6/8 resembles 3/4, in which there are 3 beats in a measure. There are clearly 4 beats in a measure in the spongebob song, listening to the bassline this is easily discernible. You are also getting fooled because the singer is exclusively in triplets, that does not decide the tempo. If that were the case, all swing would be in 6/8 which it is not. See -
