Hi Ferds
There's something going on with the mix in that there's loads of distortion happening on the vocal when Jay sings sustained notes - most obvious at the start of the track when there's not much music to hide it, especially during the first "through my eyes" chorus.
Mix buss compression is also getting obvious in places when the vocal really soars or piano plays loud notes. Maybe back off the send into the limiter/compressor.
Watch that cymbal wash, the low frequencies add a lot of mush to the mix so use a high pass filter or low shelf to get rid of everything below 600Hz, or higher if you only want to have it as mainly a light sparkle effect coming through the mix.
Not a bad effort though!
Keep at it and hope that my input has been helpful to you.

So many songs, so little time!
