Just a plain old "sudo apt-get install amarok" on it`s own
would install the version from the repo`s so unless you`d did some other configuring beforehand...like adding some third party repositry.....you may already have what your looking for. You can easily check what version of amarok your using with....
Code:
dpkg -l | grep amarok
Or check in Synaptic.
The only UbuntuGeek/Amarok guide i can find is
this guide here ......which is a actually a guide to install a fork of the no longer supported 1.4. Just as i had mentioned people were doing earlier strangely enough.

When i 'right click' on an 'exe' in the downloads folder, it says 'unable to elevate access to administrator, error 1'.

Seems i already hyjacked it from the OP so we`re both as bad as each other.

Exe`s are Windows Executables and you cant use them in Linux, not unless you have wine installed and even then that`s a bit hit and miss.
