Take care.

You're welcome.
Hearing your song through someone else's ears is always interesting. I appreciate that you spent so much time and thought on your song and obviously invested yourself in it, because I relate to that.

I heard what I think of as Asian influences at 4:16 and again at 4:52 when you use faint, twangy notes in the background.
Those background notes remind me of twangy plucked notes from Chinese instruments like the pipa. Below is a youtube video of someone playing the pipa that I think you might like, because it reminds me a little of your music. It's a little quirky.
