To emphasize whom/what the action was done to, we need to use the passive voice. The original sentence is in the active voice. In the passive voice, the object of the active - voice verb becomes the subject. The structure of the passive voice for the simple past tense is "was/were + past participle". Here, the object "the songs for Rafiki's party" becomes the subject. The verb "picked" (past participle is "picked") and since the subject is plural (songs), we use "were" (but wait, no, "the songs for Rafiki's party" is a plural subject. But wait, in the original sentence, the action is "picked" (simple past). The passive form for "picked" (transitive verb) is "were picked".
