Generally well performed.
The mix is heavy on the left. Needs something more on the right to balance it out.
The female vocal can get a little shrill on certain notes. There's a nasty frequency somewhere around 2300hz - 3500hz or so. Actually this might be a rare case where a multiband compressor might help. Have it clamp down on that range beyond a certain amount.
I thought the acoustic guitar sound was OK, but a bit on the muddy side. I'd think that a narrow cut somewhere in the 300hz neighborhood would help.
Heard a couple of pops at :15 and :16.
Songwise, it goes on for a while without enough new things going on to keep interest.

All very useful thanks.
In terms of the song itself in terms of structure/modulation etc, it lyrically is supposed to be very simple, and I wanted it to be progressive, using the melody and motifs throughout. There's no particular chorus or verse. I guess you could argue that it could be 3 mins long quite easily...but where's the indulgence in that!
For example, the intro guitar incorporates the 'I want to know you' melody; the trem picked guitar mirrors the 'more and more and more' melody.
Length wise- its not pop music obviously...I'm basically writing and recording music for family and friends!
I appreciate all the comments however, particularly about it being very lop-sided to the left! Really obvious now you've mentioned it.
Any other takers?
