Honestly, it wasn't bad.
If I had to criticize, he uses a lot of the same instrumentation, vocal tone, rhythm and lyrics. The biggest thing I didn't like is it wound up with the whole song sounding very similar. It would have grabbed me more if there had been more evolution or unpredictability. I kept waiting for it to break into more.
But he's 17. The melody was solid, and he has a unique sounding voice that can be interesting as he refines it. Heck, it's better than I could do, and I didn't dislike it. I just kept waiting for it to take off.
Overall, respect to you and your son for putting it out there. I hope he goes for it of he wants to explore music, because he has some ability to work with.
Edit: I'm also not a musician, just like music.

Thanks for the feedback. I’m not a musician either but love all kinds of music. It’s pretty interesting; that was the exact feedback that I gave him after I listened the first time. I said “Joey, let’s hear those vocals breakout at some point”. But then I listened again and woke up humming it the next day, and backtracked on my original thought. So, I told him his next song should breakout his voice.
