If so, which song?
Seems like I’d condition myself to hate that song.
That’s exactly what happens lol
Yup. I tried it because it sounded like a pleasant way to wake up. Instead I just started hating some of my favorite songs.
When I was in my teens I used Babe I’m Gonna Leave You, by Led Zeppelin as my alarm, over 15 years later and I can’t help but feel like I’m being yanked out of dead sleep every time I hear it.
This.
Now I just have a generic alarm signal because I would like to keep enjoying the music I like
The correct way is to use a song you already hate…
But why would I want to make waking up even more horrible by playing a song I hate? I don’t think there is a way for the songs to win
Mornings are rough, true. But when you hate the song enough, you can make your morning at least slightly better when you make that POS stop.
austin powers theme.
That’s a pretty groovy tune
Concerning Hobbits. I picked it to try to set the tone for the day, and it usually works. I’m not a morning person so this is about as good as I can get.
I had devil dogs by sabaton as my alarm for a while because all the instruments come in at once and it would jolt me awake.
Luke Skywalker’s theme from Star Wars: A New Hope.
I use FM radio for a random song or ad to wake me up. It’s the only time I hear the radio on purpose.
I’ve learned to use a shuffled playlist to wake up. Different song each day, but pulled from my liked songs.
Now if I can just figure out how to make that happen with Home Assistant instead of Google’s bullshit assistant.

I have others for other alarms. I set multiple so that I can gauge on who I want to be for the day.
sometimes I want to be Donnie Azoff, most the time I want to be almost unemployed.
I have a Garmin fitness watch that only vibrates to wake me up. It’s mildly annoying since it is not as gentle as my old Apple Watch from many years ago. The Apple Watch’s vibration alarm felt like a finger gently tapping my wrist. It was a nice way to gently wake up without disturbing my partner. My Garmin watch vibrates entirely on the lowest setting. I can also hear it audibly vibrate, too.

I love his work especially with Laura Brehm and this one specifically has a nice slow build without any vocals for a while which I find more pleasant to wake up to.
Nine Inch Nails - The Frail
A++ would wake up again
“Rise and shine, Mr. Freeman. Rise and shine. Not that I wish to imply you have been sleeping on the job. No one is more deserving of a rest. And all the effort in the world would have gone to waste until… well, let’s just say your hour has come again. The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. So, wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and smell the ashes.”
That followed by ‘marc rebillet - wake up’
I use the middle chorus from Gloryhammer’s Masters of the Galaxy, and it’s worked really well for a while. But I’m thinking of changing it to the opening of Powerman 5000’s Bombshell
For the first alarm, I use the default iPhone setting. For the second emergency alarm, I use Entombment of a Machine by Job For A Cowboy. I already wore that song out the better part of 20 years ago and it’s guaranteed to wake you up every time
Yeah job for a cowboy would have me getting up to turn that shit off real fast
Lmao I wake up in a fucking rage any time I let it get that far
