Great comments.
I struggled with the chorus, how prominent to make the vocals. Hard to make them stand out but not come off like a battering ram. May have come from the fact that I have to monitor lower than I'd like (and thus couldn't hear the full impact) both because of my ears and my neighbors.
Found a bit of extra sound at about 400Hz in the kick and knocked that down. Think that was probably what you were hearing. (Also EQd the reverb a bit.)
I had a Haas delay on the piano and guitar panned opposite but guess I had left it too low. Brought it up to -3dB and that seems to have helped balance things out while still leaving a good, wide mix.
Also did some experiments with the vocal lines. Not sure about it but couldn't resist playing around a bit.
Posted a revision with the above changes.
