Asterian sounded better than I expected, but he was a bit low in the mix. I might eventually be persuaded to buy him.

Uniquely sappy, soulful and smart

Ha! There's some nice alliteration going on in these lyrics.

As for fixing vocals in post-process, the trick is to record the best note you can as close to the pitch you want (for example, a B instead of a G), and then pitch-shift the note. The less you have to shift the note, the less noticeable the cheat will be.

I thought the song did a good job capturing the melancholy of a lost relationship.
