I really like the melody and the duet with the guitar and voice!

Bloopers on a LM track was something new! :D

Hey hey, another nice song. I like the harmonieis, simple as they may be, they reach their target. The tempo change is great and unexpected.
I did notice, however, that the bass drum appeared a little too boomy. That could partly be my environment, though I'm quite used to it. I suppose it may have a little much around 150-200Hz somewhere. Perhaps even a touch less volume might serve in such a situation. The hihats suffer slightly from being a sample, I may just be hypercritical on that point. :) This can very well be a matter of style/taste. Though with that acoustic living sound, it makes for an odd incongruity. One could play hihats in live and don't quantise overly hard, vary the velocity on a programmed pattern and perhaps play with a bit of lag or humanising. Depending on the sample library and velocity layers that might liven up the beat and support the acoustic feel.
Also, when her vocals came in first, I thought that a slight automation on the volume of the electric guitar would have been nice to get her more into the foreground.
The guitar sound is great though, both the electric guitar and the acoustic. I have a feeling the acoustic alone would have stood its ground. Great recording! Also the vocals sit well, they are present and crisp.
