perhaps the reason it doesn't sound right when you play it, is the picking pattern. its up-down-up (up is towards the ceiling, down is towards the floor)

Hi Wanka,
Thanks. I knew or assumed anyway that the picking pattern was up and down. This is the way I'm trying to play it. Yet, I still can't get it.
Here's what I'm doing: For the first part, I'm starting from up, meaning my first strum is playing down. So my pattern, starting from up, is down-up-down-rest x 16. Sounds good, but after that I completely fall off after the change.
I thought I was just losing my mind, but check this out
This guy is a much better player than I am, but I think he is also making a mistake at the exact same spot (at 24 seconds in). I think he is just playing the same part over again and not accounting for the change. Am I right?
