First listen: Impressed with the piano playing. Someone's not too bad there.

Snare drum a little thin and quiet. Give it a bit more "punch" maybe.

Vocals quirkily off key in places. Don't know if you were going for that, but it certainly fits the song. I kind of like it. Very Ween-ish.

Lose some reverb on the vocals, please. That's distracting. Especially in the beginning. Sounds like you're singing in an oil tanker. :-)

Second listen: Bass guitar has good prescence.

I sense some overall looseness on the timing in places -- not any one particular instrument. Again, you could call that sloppy or you could call it charm. Charm is in the ear of the beholder, to paraphrase some famous guy.

The solo is a little muddy. Lose the reverb or whatever to make it pop a bit more.

Nice organ. No, seriously, not yours, the one playing in the background. Again, quirky, but it actually works for me.

Like the overall sentiment of the song. Nice and nostalgic. Basically, I enjoyed it. It just needs some tightening. The reverb is a little overwhelming. I think losing some of the reverb would help. Nice song. Nice playing. Keep it up.
