"Ok With Me" please help

Hi All,

Just wondered if I could get some input on a collaboration I'm having a pretty rough time with. The original was voice and guitar. I added another guitar, full orchestra and drums with Sonar's session drummer. It felt ridiculous playing drums on my keyboard.  It seems so dull. I just don't like it. I don't know if it's the drums, the mix or just the song. I want to add electric bass but haven't yet. I just posted the 1st 1min 30sec.

Any help would be great. Believe me, I'm not sensitive.

Kind Regards,
Andy

    I like the direction with this song , in my humble opinion I thought the music sounded good but the song itself has some rough areas in it as when dealing with your mix .
    I can see this being a laid back tender love song and with these types of songs you really need to be grounded in all areas like with music , drums , lyrics and vocals and most of all the mix .

    I think your song sounds good but not good enough to call a hit love song , your on the right track .
