Firat time today, I picked up a cheap mandolin my girlfriend got for me and I am playing this tune already..wow. it is such a lovely sound. I've played acoustic guitar for 25 years but never this cool instrument! I recently fractured vertebrae in my back and to be honest, I am practically immobile and it hurts so much to move! Playing guitar is a definite no so I thought I'd give this a try and BINGO! Can't wait to delve into your site and videos here and learn some more good stuff. Thank you. I subscribed of course!
Oh, so many! To star, look up: Torna a Surriento O Solo Mio Souvenir D'Alvito Musetta's Waltz Plus there are many good books out there for italian mandolin. Hope that helps! Mike
Hi Brad. If you click the 'cog wheel' in the bottom right hand corner of the video and then click on 'playback speed' you can slow me down to the speed that works for you. Hope that helps. Mike
It's a little sad how much I love this tutorial AND that this Kraut-Mick loves this song so much!
Love it! I'll try to encourage our mando player to get this. Thanks, Mando Mike!
Fabulous Mike the way you break thing down is simply first class 🙌 a great tune
Cheers Chris!

Horses head coming your way Mike. Great vid cheers
Oh no, I didn't think about the consequences of making this video! I'll double lock the front door tonight :)
Happy picking!
Mike
@@MandoMikeLessons Are you being the funny wiseguy with me! LOL

Buongiorno amico thank you very much for the tabs and the video. I am a big fan of the godfather and i always wanted to do the song with the mandolin.
My pleasure!

Thanks Daryl :)
Enjoyed this one a lot. And the new camera and mike setup. Thanks Miike!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for this and for your channel
Loved this video, thanks Mike. I keep coming back to it! I'm pretty sure 430 of the 431 views are all me.
Haha, my mum is probably the other view :) Glad you're enjoying the tune!
Thankyou for the lesson
My pleasure
I feel gangster as shit. Thanks buddy.
Thank you. Have you got a patreon page?
Thanks Sarah. No I don't have a patreon page, but there's a few extras available over on the mando mike website (mandomike.com). Cheers!
Cool cover nicely done 😊
Thank you!! 😁
bro great work
Thanks 🔥
What other Italian songs work well with the mandolin?
Oh, so many! To star, look up:
Torna a Surriento
O Solo Mio
Souvenir D'Alvito
Musetta's Waltz
Plus there are many good books out there for italian mandolin.
Hope that helps!

Shouldn't the second note of Phrase 4 be F natural (3rd fret on the D string) instead of open A? (at 4:11 )
Yeah, it probably should be. The A is fine, it's still part of a Dm chord, but looking at other versions available most would play F natural. My bad,
I can not zoom in to see where your fingers are and it’s going too fast for me to follow.

It's hard to follow you as a beginner.
Are you still beginnner?😊
