Feedback for a Pop Ballad? · The Sync Vault

Feedback for a Pop Ballad?

Hey all! Looking for feedback for my first finished track since we've started in the Sync Accelerator! I'm a little nervous sharing for the first time, but I'm ready!

This track was heavily inspired by soft pop/piano ballads by Tate McRae, Olivia Rodrigo, and Lewis Capaldi, and. could use your feedback to help me finish it.

My To Do List still includes:

-Timing Vocal Doubles

-Ear Candy/Transitions/Creating small moments that keep the track moving

-Mixing! Right now I've got levels roughly where I want them but would like some feedback before I start mixing.

Right now, my biggest struggles are with drums and of course vocals.

Do the drums feel sort of flat?

Are the background vocals distracting? I feel like I'd like to add more layers but don't want to overdo it or take away from the main melody in a ballad like this.

Thanks for any feedback ya'll might have!
