    Hi all,

    I am urgently looking for 2 Westlife songs for the weekend with just the music in it and no lyrics,

    The 2 songs are "Mac the Knife" and "Ain't that a kick in the head".....

    Just looking to download them from somewhere and put them onto a cd,

    Does anyone know where i can get them?

    Any help appreciated,
    Thanks :o

    Don't mean to be pedantic [that's a lie], but there is no such thing as a "song with no lyrics", vocals is what makes a piece of music a song. It's just 'music' or 'instrumental' in that sense, hence the saying "Sing us a song".

    Sorry the off-topicness of that. Are you not able to buy a CD or iTunes/Amazon/Napster/whatever download with these tracks on them?

    Louis Armstrong? :confused:

    Do you mean the Kurt Weill/Bertolt Brecht Mack the Knife (Die Moritat von Mackie Messer)

    That is pedantic. A song is a song.

    You're correct, I am being pedantic, and yes; "A song is a song". Whatever you mean by that...

    I don't think any Westlife songs have no lyrics.

    Their songs rely on mainly vocals alone so I don't know how that could constitute to no lyrics.

    Song definition: "In music, a song is a composition for voice or voices, performed by singing." So the pedantic bloke is 100% right, Westlife "songs" without the singing would be a distinct improvement btw.
