This is my first time modding a beatmap, so bear with me!
Starting with the guest difficulty (Hard)
This is extremely well done! Only comment is this one:
03:26:881 (1,2,3,4,5) - Distance spacing gets progressively greater, seems a little out place, maybe make it uniform like the rest of the song?
Moving down to the Normal difficulty
When you have two repeating sliders to finish a thought, such as 00:41:505 (2,3) - 01:03:555 (5,6) - 01:44:897 (2,3) - 02:06:947 (5,6) and 03:24:120 (5,6) some of the spacing between them aren't uniform, and I think they should be, especially in a normal. To me, it looks like they were just slapped up there in places.
For all the sliders you made look a little weird on purpose, I think they'd look better that way if you had some sort of theme that you were following, especially since it's an easier difficulty. If you are wanting to keep them, I'd make them more abundant as well as having a set style. The hard difficulty does this REALLY well! I'll just take note of the sliders that I think look out of place.
00:18:423 (1) - Weird slider.
00:32:203 (1,2,3,4,5) - The spacing isn't uniform between these 5 notes.
00:34:960 (1) and 00:37:716 (1) - The first one looks out of place. The second one falls in the exact same piece of music and doesn't have the same style of shape.
00:57:698 (4) - You could make this slider a little more obvious that it's going to be wonky in the middle, it'll probably throw a newer player off. I think two separate sliders or one like the example below would be a better fit for the music.
01:18:714 (6) - I see what you're doing, trying to match the lyrics, but it just looks weird to me.
01:32:839 (1) - Weird slider.
01:35:595 (1,2,3,4,5) - Spacing between notes isn't uniform.
01:38:351 (1) - Weird slider.
02:01:090 (4) - Weird slider. As an example to fix this but still have the emphasis you're looking for, take a look at this:
02:15:560 (4,5,6) - Distance between these three isn't uniform.
02:36:231 (3,4,5) - See above.
02:58:625 (2) - This seems out of place, as the first time that happened in the music here 02:55:524 (2) you didn't do the same thing.
03:18:262 (4) - This slider just looks bad. And the first emphasis isn't in the right place on the slider. I'd say either break up the long slider into two or more separate ones, or make it a repeating slider, like you have at 00:57:698 (4).
03:25:842 (1) - This one has an odd end.
03:28:943 (1,2) - These look alright (especially because these two come in a pair).
03:32:043 (3,4) - Do the ends of these need to angle like that? (Unless you're going for a theme, I'd change them) They'd look much better if that was a theme you were going for and were more prevalent.
03:37:211 (2) - Weird slider.
Again, if you're going for a theme, have more of those odd sliders and find a couple styles that you really like and use those. Take a look at the guest diff (the hard), and at how common the "odd" sliders appear in the song, and that doesn't make them look odd with how abundant they are.
I hope this helps! I'm doing my best to not let my style slip in to the comments.
As for you're other two difficulties, I know that I can't map an easy to save my life, so I won't look at that one. I may look at the insane later!

Follow what silverboxer said for the insane on for your normal difficulty. The clap hitsound gets monotonous pretty early on.silverboxer wrote:
Really need to change the hitsounds on Insane...
There are a few things you could/should do:
a) Lower the volume a bit (maybe 40 or 50%)
b) Don't use the clap hitsound every other note for pretty much the entire song
c) Limit the use of the clap hitsound to notes that need emphasis, for example, the notes for the guitar and the note stacks.
Also I think a slider would fit better than a circle for the very last note of Insane. I'll do a complete mod of all difficulties later.
