Again on a turn keyboard lol, but what can ya do, so bear in mind again pedalling is bound to be poor.  But comments very much welcome.

Overall I think this is a very commendable attempt. Your musical ideas are clearly there (and they're pretty good ideas at that), what needs to be worked on now is refining the execution.  For starters, I would keep the left hand softer, place that accompaniment in the background (while still phrasing it the way you do).  More can also be done to shape the melodic line I think, and lastly, don't slow down too much at the running notes.

Nice attempt on such a crappy piano  ;)
poor you.
Hard to give decent comments since you probably cant express yourself on this piano and i think the problem of slowing down too much comes from the very limited possibility to express in volume instead of speed.
