Hmm, not so keen on the verses (though I like the harmonies in the second verse very much) but the choruses have me captured. Joan Jett rather than the Runaways. EDIT: Actually I am thinking of Suzi Quatro in the choruses, which is meant as a compliment!

I like your approach to the lyrics. Your verse melody works great, and the chorus appropriately kicks into high gear. Did you actually increase the tempo during that chorus, or does it just feel that way due to the arrangement? The biggest problem with this song is the mix. Your previous two songs also had some mix issues, but that didn't stop me from loving them. This one's a different beast, I'm afraid. The guitar and the piano sound like they're from two different songs, and then the vocals on top have that "karaoke" feel that we all dread. I think the problem might be that everything is a little too dry. It's true that mixing is more art than science, so there's no one best way to fix this mix, but I have some suggestions you could experiment with. For the vocals, I think either adding a delay or increasing the one you have already (if you have one already; I honestly couldn't tell) would give you some presence that would suit the song's tone well. On a lot of my songs, I use one "slapback" delay that's set to like 100ms or 150ms and mixed pretty low throughout the whole vocal, and then a second delay synced to the tempo at quartner-note intervals, and I keep that barely-audible, but use automation to pump it up when there's a gap in the vocal melody. And then on top of that, some reverb too. I also think the guitar needs a little (or maybe a little more) reverb (but not the same as the vocal), and the piano needs, either yet another reverb, or some sustain pedal, or possibly a subtle delay effect, or maybe all three. Now, I get that this whole suggested effects chain may turn out to be overkill in this mix, but it's worth playing around with, because if you can get your ambitious arrangements to gel better in the mix, I really think you could go far this year.
