If you could have the entire world listen to one song at the same time...?

If you could have the whole world listen to one song at the same time, what would it be and why?

The first song that popped into my head was Kill Everybody by Skrillex not for its musical value, but just for the possible hilarious results of mayhem that may or may not ensue after that would be pretty amazing plus, having the older generations introduced to this type of music would be hilarious as well. If I was to choose a song based on musical merit alone, however, it would be Metamorphosis by Philip Glass. I think this piece is stunningly beautiful and the lack of lyrics makes it universally accessible.

Anyways, what are The Escapists' choices? The weirder and more creative the better, but I can always count on you guys for that!

Rick Astley's Never Gonna' Give You Up.

The world shall be united under friendship and tolerance!

Epic to say the least. But I think some people would come after you like a bat out of hell for what you just put them through!

Always look on the bright side of life.
Monty Python has a lot going for it, but this is THE song to share with everyone. Can't help but whistle along on it and smile.

Manowar's "Warriors of the World United"

At the sound of the summons, the metalheads of the world will rise, unite, and crush the weak!

I personally think this would bring about world peace.

Anthem by Phantom Planet

'Cause this whole world needs an anthem
And I'm trying to put the words where they belong
Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem
And I'm hoping everyone will sing along

There is ONLY one answer:

I like how most of these songs would just sound annoying to the vast chunks of the world that don't speak english. :-|

Way to put some thought into your answers guys.

Shut up and smile by Bowling for soup.
Or any of the MLP songs.

Agreed.
There is no other that would do.
Because I want you all to know that I'm never gonna give you up...
That I'm never gonna let you down...
That I'm never gonna run around... And desert you...

In their defense, sometimes you don't need to understand the lyrics to see the beauty in the music, just saying, like your choice by the way!
