Hat STYLE. Not contents.
Sounds much like any number of Nightwish, Within Temptation, etc. Symphonic/Epic metal bands.
The big difference I hear is that your piano and vocal synths sound much "faker" than those bands usually go for. (Also, your song's about 7 minutes shorter.
)
That's the biggest thing I'd fix. Get some better-sounding synths. (Or a real piano and chorus if you could swing it.)

well the sound should be nightwish-like, but i don´t really know any good synths or string ensembles so that´s one problem i suppose. Piano is not that much of a problem as long as i find some good sounds. and 
whole thing has 5 minutes so it´s not that short

I agree with VomitHatsteve, the synth doesn't sound that good and for that music style the synth must be awesome. And it needs a great female voice to complete the style.

If i may ask, can you suggest any good string synth or ensemble?? i mean not too natural, and yet not too synthetic

I think the recording quality is very nice. The synth's and piano sound fine to me, if not just a bit metallic. My only gripe on this track is the kick...its too prominent in the mix. I am listening to this now in headphones, and the kick is hurting my head.

It aint ez being green
What BenighVanilla said - The kick is WAY too loud. That's my only real beef with the mix - I had to turn the bass all the way down to make it listenable. And yeah, the piano is too midi-sounding, or too thin, or something.. Doesn't sound quite right, a little goofy, but not that big a deal.. Guitars sound good, you have a good start here, keep it going!
