Big Head Todd & The Monsters: 'Hey Delilah'
#3
Hey there, nice work on this. Just a few thoughts to consider:

Could you notch out the nasty ring on the snare? In the intro it's quite prominent and could do with just a small cut with a really narrow bandwidth. Also maybe get a transient designer or tighten up the compression on the snare to give it a more punch. Drums could in general maybe do with being a bit more in-your-face.

Vocals are a little far back in the mix for me. Maybe layer a couple of compressors so you don't have one compressor doing all the work to bring it more up front. At the moment it's being lost behind the big buzzy guitars.

With the tambourine I'd suggest applying a high-pass filter so it's just adding a bit of shimmer on the top.

Finally maybe drop the bass back a bit and/or cut out some low mid on it to give yourself a bit more space for vocals. You could also cut the low on the hammond for the same reason.

Hope that helps, just some ideas. Great job overall, really enjoyed listening to it.
