@Jerze - Thanks for the kind words! I’m glad you noticed that ambient track. I created it with this FREE Ambient Reverb from Stone Voice. (http://stone-voices.ru/vst/ambient_reverb) I snipped Cristina’s first arpeggiated chord and ran it through the reverb and flipped the “freeze” switch to create a drone. Then I kept feeding it every now and then with a harmonic or another chord when I wanted to emphasize a beat or word like “lies” on “…everybody lies” or “place” ("…when we get out of this place") in the second verse. I liked it so much I was afraid I was going to mix it too loud. 
For the BG guitar in the chorus, I felt it was too busy and distracting, so I edited out the sections that played while she was singing and made it a kind of “answer-back” between the vocal phrases.
Anyway, thanks for the listen! I’ll give yours a listen as soon as I have a chance…

loved the vocals !
loved the bass addition and very creative to bring the guitar back around 1:57 ,
It felt a wee bit late to me unless it was for a syncopation effect. Sounded good either way.
I did miss the cry at 2:48 , I felt it was a pivotal part of the song, but if I did not have knowledge of the track, I would not find anything amiss either. It feels like a smooth listen.
Fabulous work and great creative additions!

Nice mix. A bit dry, but good for clarity.
Looks like I already commented. I’m not doing good at keeping these mixes straight anymore.

Well thanks for the re-listen nonetheless! They do start blending together after awhile, don’t they.

The main vocal treatment sounds killer, it’s hard to really find fault with this mix. If I were to get picky a little more backing vox in the chorus would have been nice but it’s purely subjective. Awesome effort.

Here’s a revision I made inspired by feedback on @JayGee’s excellent mix. The main thing I wanted to address was the main guitar track.
What I did: Rather than duplicating the track, I split the L/R channels of the main guitar and slipped the time on one by 11 ms. Each channel has it’s own instance of the Waves CLA-2A for its own independent leveling to add more separation between the channels. Finally, the Right Channel has a smidge of Blue Cat’s Chorus and the Left a smidge of Soundtoys Microshift. I think this added some interest to the guitar track and spread it out more to make room for the main vocal up the middle. I also added some saturation to the solo guitar and a little more sweetening to the main vocal.

miked,
I love it. You got a great effect and didn’t get the delay artifacts like I did. I think the chorus you added helped hide any delay issues.

Thanks JayGee, I had to try it out after hearing your mix because that was one of the things I struggled with in mine. I have listened to this song/mix so many times now I was unsure if it helped or not. I am at this point.

I am liking the overall vibe and balance. You good dynamics as well. The vocals have a few lip smacks that could have been cleaned up if you are going this in your face with them. I could have used more kick to balance the mix from top to bottom. Even with the addition of the bass it feels a little lacking in the low end to me.
Thanks for sharing.

Obviously not 
Nice mix. The vocal seems to poke out a bit.

Super pleasant, like getting a special massage. No resistance whatsoever, just slides in for immeasurable pleasure. It’s lacking a little spice though, if you know what I mean. Everything sounds like it’s a bit flat. Also seems like it’s lacking a little high-end that would help with the spice problem, liven things up and help with stereo separation.

You’re welcome friend. May your journey be filled with love, women, and dirty magazines.
heard once more on old Samsung Earbuds (terrible ones) - previous pass was on AV40s (Treated room)
Mix translated well on the earbuds. Not much to add that hasn’t already been mentioned.
A simple suggestion I would make is to crop/fade the ending consonants at times, specially if harmony vocals and main vocals have different emphasis on the ending consonants, it gets a bit distracting on headphones and earbuds because of the stereo field. Example is 1:11s , quick and simple polish on the vocals
Other than that, no peaks, no crackles on the earbuds, nicely translated.
Bass sounded great as well on earbuds!
