    Eh, dunno.
    I think you get them in the shop where they sell the karaoke machine, with the screen/microphone combination, that includes all the hits guaranteed to get the party started.
    I'm sure there are probably a few shops of this type in Ireland; don't know where they are, though.
    I'd wager there will be a poster along soon enough who'll set you on the right track.

    Are you looking for instrumental songs (as in songs with no singing) or are you looking to get vocal-less versions of existing songs to use in karaoke? It's not clear from your post.

    oh sorry :)
    Im looking for exsisting songs with the vocals removed.

    example:
    lady gaga's bad romance without her singing :)

    You need to google for "backing tracks" rather than "instrumental songs".

    So the first result for "bad romance backing track" on google gives this pretty kick ass site where you can actually adjust the volume of the lead vocals, backing vocals, drums etc.

    http://www.karaoke-version.com/custombackingtrack/lady-gaga/bad-romance.html

    Edit: actually that site is kinda pricey. 3 bucks a song :eek: But yeah google for backing tracks, tones of free ones out there.
