Sounds like a pretty decent mainstream pop song, but the trouble is there is a lot of mainstream pop out there. I have no idea how you can make your song stand out from the crowd.

That's the problem. I'm glad that my mixing skills are now good enough to be decent as a mainstream pop song, but the genres I like to produce (pop and dubstep) are becoming more and more homogeneous. And I picked up dubstep about a year and a half ago, right before it exploded into the mainstream, so I don't even get to be a pretentious hipster about it.
I tried combining movie-score-like orchestral music with dubstep, but that was only partially successful. I'm learning guitar, but pop/rock has been done to death, even if it is getting revamped a bit by younger bands (like Foster the People, Young the Giant, and Fun). So I guess the question is, where do I go from here?

tl;dr version: I agree.
