Great job on the song. The whole thing flows nicely. A few suggestions I'd make:
1. Vocals are a little pitchy in areas. Neptune and/or the pitch editor can work wonders to correct those spots.
2. Drums are a little too dry while the rest of the instruments have hints of reverb and delay.
3. Vocals sit well but wouldn't mind a little more high end to brighten them up.
4. The bridge near the ending is a little too bare once the synth cuts out. Maybe add something in the background to keep the buildup going?

Relax. Listen to some music.

Me Like! Kudos. Good song.
I dig the change in vibe in the bridge. But, I agree with strangers that a little pitch correction on the vocal would be appropriate. FWIW, I also think vocal harmonies would make the chorus pop even more.
Good Stuff!

Great stuff. Maybe the vocals are somewhat pitchy, but it doesn't detract from my enjoyment. I kinda like imperfections like that. I agree with Strangers that the drums might be too dry. But overall, great track!!

Well I don't think the vocals are "pitchy" lol. I like a bit of roughness to a vocal. Sounds good well done.

This sounds really really good. As others have mentioned the drums sound a little dry and like they don't occur in the same sonic space as the other instruments / vocals. The drumming is good but gets somewhat repetitive during the verses. Consider harmony vocals for the chorus and the chorus section seems almost the same volume as the verses. I would think about maybe making those the loudest of the track and having the verses be a tad lower in volume for more dynamic range. I like the rawness of the vocals and honestly wouldn't mess around with them a whole heck of a lot. All in all even without any changes this is something to be immensely proud of.
Thanks to all of you for the great feedback. I'll lift the hood and tweak the drums and vocal tracks to get them to settle in.
I'll provide feedback to the drummer to see what she comes up with regarding a bit more variation on the verse.
If anything else stands out or seems to be missing please feel free to comment.
