beatles here comes the sun by willem
Willem,
This is a tough song to get a grip on, but you're well on your way to getting it under control.
There are a few issues that I think Neil will probably address. One of them is some notes that are missing here and there, consistently in the same spot throughout the song. Another is your timing. You are occasionally playing quarter notes that should be eighth notes. That's difficult to pick up when you learn a song from a tab, but you might want to go back to Neil's lesson to see what he does with the timing. After you feel you understand it, you might want to try playing along with him.

lol, Willem, I was working on this last night, although mine was the singing along version), and I'm still having issues with it, but I'm coming along. I played for 30 minutes (same song) and my fingers said ENOUGH, ALREADY!!!
There are some timing issue and missed notes, as mentioned earlier, but it seemed like you were aware of them while playing. Just need to keep playing it.

Hi Willem,
I learned this song last year and the little timing errors etc that you have, have already been mentioned. I learned this by playing it against guitar pro and I have to say this made learning the timing a lot easier. Maybe you could try this? I played it slow until it was good, then it just naturally sped up.
I think this is the cleanest I have heard you play yet. Good effort, keep practicing!

Hey Willem. I think it's a great use of time to revisit tunes that have given us a bit of grief and spend more time on them. I have been doing the same, hoping that with more guitar time under my belt I will do a better job 2nd time around. I can see big improvements in your playing, and as a couple of posters have said, there's definitely some nice clean playing here. Keep working and look forward to seeing it again in a while. Cheers mate!
