it sounds like there is no reverb or no backing vocals....maybe its a slower bpm then the song?

there's reverb, that's not the problem at all

The problem, is that it's completely out of tune with the track (although tbh, without hearing the track without the vocals I can't know whether it's just the vocal that's out of tune or if it's the track itself).

You have to build the track around the notation of the vocal. The vocal, like a normal synth riff, is in a certain key and follows a certain notation. You can't just slap it over any random track and expect it to sound good.

It's really out of tune/off key.

chuck a load of 4x4 kick's in your sequencer, stretch the pella to fit the kicks
'then' make the bassline to find the root note, once you got the bassline sorted you'll know what notes you can use for the lead, pads etc...
