[@actualturtle2421]

I love it, but for a different reason than I like the original. The original is pining and lonesome and eerie and ethereal. The harmonies make it a lot more upbeat sounding, and they have that signature 'What key is this even in?" Jacob Collier vibe.

Just my opinion ofc, but I think it's a lot more refreshing than if the harmonies had been as predictable as you're implying..

The addition of the 1st guy was so good, but the 2rd and 3rd were not needed and makes it sound cluttered, it's overharmonization. The 1st guy was good in the fact that he blended so well into the girl's voice that it boosted the general feeling of the song and even added some needed spice into the song, sweet and subtle. The 2nd and 3rd guys can be heard too clearly and negate the 1st guy when the girl's voice is battling 2 other voices. Not to mention that you can't even hear the 1st guy's voice when the 3rd guy comes in and that the 2nd and 3rd guy are putting too much emphasis on "know" which just makes the girl hard to hear.
