Doesn't work if you click on the link, but right-click save-as seems to work.

The mix sounds a bit "dead". You might try some reverb on the vocals.

Also, you seem to clip something once in a while (like right at around 2:01). Watch out for that.

On a side note, I'm not sure what the first 23 seconds of the track add.

most likely the clipping is the pick hitting the pickguard

Ok...now it does. I liked it better when I was wondering.

I am gonna be honest. The entire song has the same two guitar parts. Maybe try to broaden that up a bit. Variety might help out. Your vocals are strange. I am having a hard time picturing where you are going with the melody as you are signing so far off key. Maybe try to slow down the guitar part some Beats per minute to allow you to work on the vocals. The if you desire, pick the pace back up. The vocals are real bad. Sorry. I struglle most there too. I like the fact that you posted the song for others to hear though. Thanks. Keep pluggin away.

i'd like to know what you mean by strange vocals. i don't know if you are familiar with emo, but it's done simple (guitar) and the vocals come straight from the heart. just thought i'd clear that up

No problem. I understand the simple guitar and vocals thing. By strange I mean that they are off key, Off pitch. A major issue from a musical standpoint. Not everyone is a singer. However, with a lot of practice one can greatly improve over time. Good luck.

oh ok, thanks for clearing that up, i'm pretty sure you know alot of singers improve. i'm still fairly new to singing an playing at the same time. plus i'm pretty tone deaf when it comes to music.
