Hi TheDon!
Something is happening with the vocals in the chorus of this version - I think the lead vocals drop away too much. They become thinner instead of fuller with the addition of the backing.
From memory, the chorus vocals are not only recorded at a different volume but they are EQd differently to the verse vocals as well - like they were recorded at a later stage then spliced into the existing vocal track.
Best way to approach them is to separate them onto different tracks, set their relative volumes to be approximately the same and EQ them so that they are also not too different (unless that is your goal to have this difference)
Everything else is pretty good, my friend.
Though I think the low quality mp3 is causing high frequencies to become weird. When you bounce the mix, can you render them to 192kHz or higher?

Thanks Dags for taking the time to have a listen ,yes i did split and treated verse and chorus with seperate eq.
It don't think it was my goal to have this difference ,more like not having a real clue of what i was doing LoL .Yes will upload higher quality mp3's you are correct after comparing my upload with wave file ,there is a big difference

If u ask me, I always work oversempling (again record through converters to 88.2 khz 24bit) at the end, i do downsample to 44.1 with Apogee linear dither (white noise) and then export in 16bit 44.1 WAV, and then I convert the file to mp3 converter 320kbps.
U can hear that noise on my track, but i save some bits
