Perhaps consider bringing your vocals more to the front, or perhaps push the drums a little further back. The drums are a little dominant, to my thinking anyway. You captured a really good Beach Boys feel. Have a great Christmas.

The only element that doesn't work for me is the solo guitar - it's too grainy and aggressive for the rest of the song and genre. There's plenty of spring style reverb but too much drive/crunch for my ears. Fabulous vocal performance. Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe
