I haven't heard the original, but i'll give you my honest opinion.

The guitar should have been miked up\recorded a different way. There is alot of screeching from you moving around the fretboard.

There is some terrible hum in the background, which i think sounds like ground hum?

It should have been a bit less sloppily played, and also a bit more in time.

Anyway, keep in mind that this is just my opinion

well, all i've really got for recording is an external mic and gargeband. and as for my playing, ive been still playing for under a year, but i respect your comment cause its stuff like that i appreciated being pointed out to help make my playing stronger. so thanks for the feedback and i'll work on the timing and such.
