I only listened to the last version, but it sounds pretty good here.    It's got a certain style to it that works nicely and well, a happy groove.    Love the vocal layering towards the end... very cool.

Thanks very much for your ears. Its great there is a "happy" feel off the tune.
 
A few other of your minor tweaks done.

Another great song Cian! Bouncy, happy, (but with the under tones of darker subject matter) catchy as can be. I hope they talked you into keeping it.

Cian,
  I haven't read the other posts but this is a finished product to my ears and I really don't hear anything that is missing or needed.  The vocal delivery is unique and cool.  The mix sounds great on my system and the performances all sound fine to me.  Great job!

this one's the best version indeed I thought, great stuff....more brutal commentzzzzzah ->
Especially I thought the slow vocal parts improved,  nice easy, care-free talking and whispering now, the loud singing parts ofcourse are fantastic again.
you've got what it takes to become a great singer, I'm tellin ya'
listen'up, then girls/women will be hunting ye

Thanks guys.
 
Clint, I like this song because of that, although a happy feeling, my message is serious and dark.
 
Tony, Cheers.
 
Wouter, your a humerous man! I do get female attention, unfortunuetly us wannabe superstars spend so much time in a room hunche over a laptop we have also lost our social skills!
 
I removed "brutal honest feedback required" since its not necessary and the "old" version. Its perfect for the time being.

Everything you do is magic.  Initially I was put off a bit by the lyrics, but I think your more recent versions are better.  Production is perfect, and your singing is superb.

Catchy. I think my favorite part of the mix is the organ keys. Good change up at the bridge. Dynamically engaging and overall good song.

Hi, Cian,
 
I'm late to the party on this one, but it sure sounds great to me!
 
You've got a cool, fun, pop song with a catchy hook and excellent vocals as always, with a well played and arranged  instrumental/rhythm track and a nice, clean, modern sounding pop mix!
 
Great stuff, my friend!
Bob
