That intro.... 2 and a half minutes... that's really long. And if you have something that long, it's bound to get repetitive. I will say that you did manage to have it *not* be super repetitive, and I'll give you brownie points there. That being said, we're talking about a 2 and a half minute intro... that's really pushing it.
If we started the song at 2:00 I would be a lot more likely to give this 5 stars.
Now, I know you wanted the lax feel, and you did execute it well. I'm not criticizing your taste. Well done.
Starting at 2:52, that begins my favorite part. Unfortunately, this is such a small portion of the song as a whole.
I wish that that part *would you call it the chorus?* was longer, I'd give it a 11/10, as it's truly amazing!
The buildup was great. it is my second favorite part of the song. Though I do feel that a few notes were off.
I wouldn't mind if you checked out my entry, and gave me a review even half as detailed as this one. ^^
To summarize:
Nice job!
Take the intro down a minute and a half, extend the chorus by 45 seconds, and this is easily one of my favourite tracks!
