It's a great Song and it was a lot of fun for me, to tweak it.
I hope you'll like it!
Comments to this are very welcome!

First of all I was really surprised by the intro. It was pretty cool how you arranged it. I don't know what you did to the voice though, it somehow sounds a bit awkward to me, probably its something with the EQ settings. Apart from that I didnt find much to criticize, all sounds clean and natural. Cheers

I Like your mix cool vocal intro ,I haven't tried this one yet, just some thoughts while enjoying listening.
Can hear some low end buildup in the intro, maybe a touch less bottom end on the low octave vocal and keys but not a big deal.
With the snare, Can hear a boxy resonance poking out of the mix a touch ,I did a quick sweep with parametric a narrow q parametric and found a maybe dip at around 223-225 hz might do the trick to tame it just to sit in the mix better.
Good job

Thanks man! Yeah, I had to fight a lot with the leadvocals because they were pretty sizzily around 6-10k and I hat to cut a lot there, and at some parts like at the beginning, these frequencies missed...
Thanks for reply!

Thank you for reply!
It was a long process to tweak the vocals and I'm a bit
dissatisfied about it but I will try out your Version!
In case of the snare, I let some more of the bottom end in the mix because it's pretty high pitch, but now when I listen, I know what you ment it's kinda disturbing...
I'll fix that
