I'll have to agree that recording a song in a "professional"/commercial studio surely does not always mean that it's actually going to sound better. I have experienced this several times in the past. There is usually no time (time is money) to get into the song's arrangement details as much as you would like.

At least two times in my case, my initial (four-track cassette!) recording sounded better in retrospect.

Good to hear that you like to experiment with different vocal styles! I can really appreciate that.

Your song:

I think it sounds really good and powerful! The vocal is excellent. It sounds like you are using some kind of "doubler", or a really short delay? This makes the vocal sound really solid.

The song is catchy for sure and will do for the audience just what you had in mind.

Indeed, the ending of the song with the talking part sounds natural to me and works well.
