I like this song a lot. I used to write a lot of instrumentals, but none ever sounded this polished. Good use of dynamics and good mastering. My only quibble, and a slight one it is, is that I keep wanting to hear more bass. Not much, but enough to give the piano a solid bottom. Other than that, well, well done.

Thanks for the listen and comments Lynn. You 'da bomb!

I'm not liking how SoundCloud sounds at all...there's some murky, wobbly something that it seems to do to my tracks at least... This sounds better to me: http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11322299

Hard to find anything wrong with these sounds. At around 1:28 and again around 2:37 there are quiet passages. I thought that a couple of the cymbal crashes (just in these spots) were a bit loud. Other than that I think the mix is just exceptional. Glen

I liked your arrangement.A very clean tight mix. Have you tried to loosen up the drums at all? Maybe add a more human feel to them? They aren't bad but could maybe be humanized just a tad. Didn't make the song sound bad though. Great job!
