Glad I could help! And no, just putting your mic in the corner won't help. You have to find a way to get that corner and ceiling padded with something. I've made vocal booths out of cardboard and cheap sound proofing. Not recommended. Something I bought not too long ago has been working surprisingly well.
I use that, then put a sound proof panel over the top. I was certain I was wasting my money on a quick fix but I don't regret it in the slightest. Put THAT in the corner and you've got some results. Need a good quality heavy mic stand though so it can add up for me when I was dirt poor haha. Obviously if you're screaming a loud main vocal line from 6 feet away from the mic you're still going to get room sound, but is worth the investment for the improvement I saw.
I hear you with the intonation problem. Bought a cheap classical 6 months ago that sounds beautiful, but the cheapness shows through there. It's a shame you would have to change any bit of that song to compensate for quality equipment.
I honestly don't know which mic to recommend for you. Sound like you're using a condenser? I usually recommend dynamic but I love how lo-fi it sounds. You've heard of Dr. Dog right? That song screamed early day Dr. Dog. Lo-fi for a reason, not because you don't know what you're doing. (even if you don't lol)
I'm shocked you are using garage band. Biggest mistake I see with people new to production is everything is too loose and floppy with the starts and stop of instruments. Yours is very tight and holds the idea of the song very well. I can groove on it without cringing at slightly misplaced strums or bass lines. For not knowing much about mixing this is very impressive.
It has a very intimate "I'm talented and getting by with what I can to make good music" feel. The only issue I see is that this seems like the song on the album that deviates from having a full band and is a novel clap and snap acoustic bit to shake things up. I hope to hear you change it up enough through out your material because that might be difficult. I didn't say that though. No obstacles. Keep making it!
EDIT: Don't go buying the link I sent you without researching what you're getting, I might have linked you one to sit on a desk or something. But that is the brand I have.
