I mean 0:36 and 0:41 and the other occurences of the same part 
(3:33, e.g). Perhaps it's not wrong, but it sounds somehow off to 
me. Also the guitar hook sounds just a tad off (esp. the 2nd and 
3d note).

I would start with adding a bit of 1.5 - 2 kHz (or perhaps 2.5 
kHz) in the vocal, and lose a bit of that same frequency in the 
track. Not much, perhaps just 1 dB each. And then I would 
compress the end result (with the voice in the track). That 
should glue the whole thing together while keeping the vocals 
intelligible.
