Same feeling with the vocals here… I wish the vocal melodies were the piano melodies. Black Eyed peas'd the challenge I see. Chop half the sections in half… too long for me.

this is pretty charming and upbeat. Some of the vocal layering is really nice, but other parts feel a bit overly messy and busy, the whispery layers in particular don't really work for me. Electric piano playing is nice but the arrangement feels a little lacking in dynamics.

I do need this to be shorter. It’s just too even keeled for three and a half minutes. Even the bridge doesn’t feel like a big enough difference from the rest of the song. A couple options: bump up the tempo, get rid of most of the repeating lines, change the instrumentation as the song progresses, change the range of the arrangement (like, have a trebly chorus, a bassy verse, etc). Personally, I’d say all of the above.
