I really like the cleaner vocal delivery in this song. Haven’t heard AJ sing like this since Reach for the Sun. Not that his gravely voice isn’t...
I think the mix is actually good, it's just overcompressed in terms of data/bit rate. That's why it sounds off. I really dig the song.
Can't hear the vocals in the chorus. Verses are fun though.
I really like it. The transition between verse and chorus is creative, and the chorus is catchy and unique.
