A mandolin (Italian: mandolino pronounced [mandoˈliːno]; literally "small mandola") is a musical instrument in the lute family and is usually plucked with a plectrum or "pick". It commonly has four courses of doubled metal strings tuned in unison (8 strings), although five (10 strings) and six (12 strings) course versions also exist. The courses are normally tuned in a succession of perfect fifths. It is the soprano member of a family that includes the mandola, octave mandolin, mandocello and mandobass.
There are many styles of mandolin, but four are common, the Neapolitan or round-backed mandolin, the carved-top mandolin and the flat-backed mandolin. The round-back has a deep bottom, constructed of strips of wood, glued together into a bowl. The carved-top or arch-top mandolin has a much shallower, arched back, and an arched top—both carved out of wood. The flat-backed mandolin uses thin sheets of wood for the body, braced on the inside for strength in a similar manner to a guitar. Each style of instrument has its own sound quality and is associated with particular forms of music. Neapolitan mandolins feature prominently in European classical music and traditional music. Carved-top instruments are common in American folk music and bluegrass music. Flat-backed instruments are commonly used in Irish, British and Brazilian folk music. Some modern Brazilian instruments feature an extra fifth course tuned a fifth lower than the standard fourth course.
The "Tarantella Napoletana" is the tarantella associated with Naples. It is familiar to North American viewers of popular media as a stereotypically "Italian" musical riff or melody.
Examples of its use include Gioachino Rossini's "La Danza" from Soirées Musicales (1830–1835).
"Whiskey in the Jar" is a well-known Irish traditional song, set in the southern mountains of Ireland, often with specific mention of counties Cork and Kerry, as well as Fenit, a village in County Kerry. The song is about a Rapparee (Highwayman), who is betrayed by his wife or lover, and is one of the most widely performed traditional Irish songs. It has been recorded by numerous professional artists since the 1950s.
The song first gained wide exposure when the Irish folk band The Dubliners performed it internationally as a signature song, and recorded it on three albums in the 1960s. Building on their success, the Irish rock band Thin Lizzy hit the Irish and British pop charts with the song in the early 1970s. In 1990 The Dubliners re-recorded the song with The Pogues with a faster rocky version charting at No.4 in Ireland and No.63 in the UK. The American metal band Metallica brought it to a wider rock audience in 1998 by playing a version very similar to that of Thin Lizzy's, though with a heavier sound, winning a Grammy for the song in 2000 for Best Hard Rock Performance.

He’s got a nice little life
He’s gonna live it but on
Friday nights he plays that mandolin
Painted red and he said
“It’s not the best I know but it’s mine”
I’m gonna make it last
Ohh, yeah
Oh oh, woah
People there can’t help but care
About the friendly music of a guy
Who’s getting by on their applause
He’s got a song that moves along
He’s got his local crowd tonight
At Angelina’s Family Bar and Grill
He’s got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays to live and breathe but
Who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song, it brings along
Everybody sayin’
Who’s that guy who plays the mandolin, mandolin
Oh yeah, mandolin
Got a car, got a scar like
Everyone has got a few but
Everybody loves that mandolin
Got his problems, bills to pay
Somehow that boy finds a way
Through paychecks and tip jars, yeah
He’s got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays to live and breathe but
Who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song, it brings along
Everybody sayin’
Who’s that guy who plays the mandolin, mandolin
Oh, he’s the kind of guy who never really wanted fame
His feet are planted firmly on the ground
He never wanted people to remember his name
He never wanted word to get around that he found heaven
on earth
He’s got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays to live and breathe but
Who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song, it brings along
Everybody sayin’
Who’s that guy who plays the mandolin
Oh, I’m the guy who plays the mandolin
Mandolin
Oh oh
Mandolin
