I had to go listen to see what all the discussion was about.
It's a good song. Like Scott, I don't like the clanking sound. Like ensnareyou, I think the vocals would be better with a little less processing and a little more upfront, but that may just be individual taste. I don't find the strings too loud. I'm listening on a $1,000 stereo system, but it isn't a studio-grade monitor system.
I think the comments are pretty much well spoken and constructive. Keep up the good work!
