A touch of classic Daryl song writing and tune-smithing, interest topic, well constructed lyrics and all in all well captured.  If I had one nit and it is only a tiny nit, it sounded a little like the bass honked in a couple of places in the first minute.  Other than that

I can certainly here that British feel in this one. Has all the elements of a nice Beatles song. I could almost hear some ohhhs and ahhs in there. Loved both song and mix!

I really like your style. This production is so good. Love the song and mix. 
On my system, running it through speakers and my ATH M50's, I think the bass is too hot. 
Love the kick level. I think the bass is overpowering the vocals. 
 
Isn't it funny how we all hear stuff differently? 
 
All the best,

I think what I'm reading is that the bass is sitting in the low mid frequencies, to mid frequencies more so than what we would traditionally (in the modern era) expect. I'd suggest cloning the bass track, lowering the original and EQing the cloned track to enhance the lower frequencies. You could also try the trick Craig Anderton posted about a few weeks ago, transposing the cloned track down an octave and blending that deeper bass sound into the mix.
 
Personally, I think it sounds fine the way it is, but I can understand some of these other comments regarding the bass.

Good song Daryl, spot on message too. Mix sounds good to me, listening fairly low in headphones.

Nice one Daryl! Drums are very present in this, which I love. Bass is right there (not sure why Kakku is missing it, it's right behind my eyes). Nice touches throughout which really keep things interesting.

I do hear the bass I just want to hear it like darker or deeper. My tunes most of them miss good bass but I do like the bass, especially if it is powerful and deep. Or maybe I need to switch my headphones to better ones.
Edit: after second listen I must admit the bass is just fine here. Even though it is not quite as deep as I would like, it goes well with the song. And maybe I should get better h-phones.
Edit:I have grados sr80s but not sure of their qualities.

I will do a drum and bass mix for you Kakku :) 

Very Nice tune Daryl
 
I happen to dig the songs message , it fits right along the lines of how I choose to live my life ...
Yeah man ,
Nice John Lennon vibe through out the song ..very nice mix ...loud and punchy ..I liked where the bass was sitting in the mix ....

This is very cool – cute without being too cute, poppy but not so sweet that it detracts. Love the way the simple bass line hits you in the gut. Very nice production – solid sounds and blended very well. It’s really an odd little tune as well. Catchy – very. Don’t take this the wrong way – but I can see someone using this in a commercial due to the catchy nature of it. It’s fun, original and just a neat tune all around. Excellent writing and performance.

Wow - thanks a lot Manny.
No offence taken -  I don't write for commercial gain but also wouldn't say no :)

That would BE nice but perhaps best IF you use your talent for something else but I will try to put deep bass on my own tunes, which I have had problems with.

Absolutely brilliant, Daryl.  Your words wrap around your voice like an old friend.  I think the mix sounds great through my Rokit 8's.  Your work always inspires me to do better.  Keep em comin'.
