VATICAN CITY, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- A MySpace Music playlist submitted by the Vatican includes Mozart's "Don Giovanni" alongside the less traditional "Changes" by Tupac Shakur.

The playlist, which also includes "Uprising" by Muse and "After the Rain" by Dame Shirley Bassey, was compiled by Father Giulio Neroni, artistic director of church publisher St Paul's Multimedia, to be a "perfect mix of classical, world and contemporary music," The Daily Telegraph reported Thursday.

"Changes," which was released in 1998, after the rapper's shooting death in 1996, features lyrics about violence and drug crime.

"The genres are very different from each other, but all these artists share the aim to reach the heart of good minded people," the description on the Vatican's MySpace Music page reads.
