Right. :-)  Always hard to get right ammount of distiction. Also sounds different on each unit/stereo/headset you play it on. 
 
Thanks again.

Good song!  I think it has all the right elements, but for me, the mix could use a few tweaks...   I'd like to hear the drums punchier (and with a touch more reverb) to better match the bass which is nicely thick, just a little less slapback on the lead vocals, and a gentle lift on the lead guitar (a panned delay might be cool).   All subjective of course!

Thanks alot for good suggestions Steve. Like the idea of a panned delay...

Vocals are coming through just great, but I'd also just reduce the slapback - just - a little. I can hear slapback is an integral part of the sound.
 
Your background vocals in the chorus (bridge?) section are just killer! Are you using "chorus" on them? How are you getting that cool "silky" feel to your bgv's?
 
Absolute necessity, bring that snare up and out, or perhaps replace it with another snare - what are you using for drums?
 
Your song has a nice groove and feel to it, well done.

Hi Tom, and first of all thank you for your feedback.
 
I get the "snare up" part. Especially later in the song. Will look into that. As you say, maybe try a different snare. I use addictive 2 btw. 
 
In the backingvocals I have used no Chorus. Made 3 layers/tracks all recorded separately in different octaves. Just fine tuned with EQ on each track, and sent them to a BUS with BREVERB 2. (A capella vox - HALL)
 
Thanks again.
