Thanks for your feedback rayc and David. You always give really useful feedback whether positive or constructive. I do appreciate the feedback on the vocals as I haven't sang for years (except for on karaoke) and I know they need to improve.

I think I may have used a bit too much eq in the midrange and accentuated the nasal sounds. In the performance I was trying to lose the bass-y sound in my voice (that's the only way I can explain it) which I don't think would suit this song and that might have produced that sound. I'll play about with the EQ later and see if that was causing the sound or it was mainly the performance of it.

Collaborating with other people would be great but I'm not too sure how to go about that.
