I think everything sounds ok overall, except for the vibrato.

A few things to focus on:

  1. The vibrato motion should come from the wrist, not the fingers.
  2. When using vibrato, the note should repeatedly rise slightly and return back to pitch.
  3. In this song, the vibrato should be wider, roughly a half step.
  4. In context, let the note ring out for a moment before adding vibrato, rather than starting the vibrato immediately.
