Cybersecurity and cyberwar playlist

After writing Cybersecurity and Cyberwar: What Everyone Needs to Know, P.W. Singer compiled a playlist filled with songs to help readers explore the emerging security challenges that continue to arise in the new digital age. His final playlist features a wide range of artists and genres, from the Rolling Stones to Daft Punk to “Weird Al” Yankovic, and each song contains specific lyrics that relate to the realm of cybersecurity and cyberwar. Can you guess which chapters relate to each song?
