Musicians MC Hammer and Carlos Santana both had two minutes to speak openly to a room full of politicians at the U.S. Conference of Mayors' annual meeting in San Francisco on Friday.
MC Hammer started with a rap. Santana opted to list songs that he thinks will change society, if they are listened to in malls and elevators everywhere.
"There are seven songs that I believe have the power to change the mindset of subconscious human," Santana told the mayors. "If these songs were played in shopping malls, elevators, and other places, I believe you would notice a visceral change in human behavior and conduct."
Take a listen to Santana's seven:
1. "What a wonderful world" - Louis Armstrong
2. "What's Going On" - Marvin Gaye
