Very very very cool Lynn.
 
If it were me I'd give the bass a little more bottom or give the kick more bottom. They seem like they are both ducking each other.
 
Just a personal taste thing because the toon is too cool.

Dave, thanks for the kind words.  I'm glad you caught the mood of this song.  Actually, it's a tongue-in-cheek story of a living situation that I'm currently involved in, not really a spiritual crisis.  But, I left it ambiguous for a reason...
 
Ed, I already updated the newer version to incorporate your ideas.  Thanks for your golden ears, and I hope this is closer to what you want to hear.

Hi, Lynn,
 
This is a really fantastic and very cool song!
 
Well written and performed, excellent vocals and harmonies, and a tasty guitar solo that's a perfect fit for the vibe of the song. I love the Rhodes in the background and the organ part, too.  My only mix suggestion would be to boost the guitar solo volume by about 1 or 2dBs to let it "pop out" of the mix a bit more.
 
The mixing and production on both versions is really, really good, but I think I prefer Mix #2 because the arrangement is a little less busy, and it allows better focus on the vocals and the main theme of the song without too many distractions.
 
Excellent stuff, as always, Lynn, your songs have a really cool "trademark style" that I always look forward to and really enjoy!
 
Really nice work, buddy, have a rockin' week, my friend!
Bob

The remix sounds great. I heard it on headphones and my iPad. Everything sounds great and balanced. My wife likes it too.

Bob, thank you for taking the time to listen and comment.  I think you're right about the 2nd mix and the guitar solo.  I'll take care of that on the next pass.
 
John, thank you for your time, as well.  I'm happy to hear that it sounds OK on your iPad, as I took some time to make sure it sounded OK on my tablet, too.

Remix requires nothing more than a from me.

Good job the pair of you.

Thank you, Joshua!!!  It isn't exactly what we were working on, but I think it captures the essence of your ideas.  Happy Thanksgiving, and I'll see you when I get back from Mexico.
