If so, which song?
Yes, I use Lord of the Rings: The Shire Theme (Concerning Hobbits) Epic Version by Samuel Kim.
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.
Right now I use a mix of these two:
+1 for Marc Rebillet
Vanessa Carlton’s “A thousand miles”, mostly for the piano part at the beginning.
Not to mention it’s an absolute banger
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.
Luke Skywalker’s theme from Star Wars: A New Hope.

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.

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 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.
Yeah, I use The Ecstacy of Gold from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. It starts quietly and peacefully so doesn’t startle me but builds to a crescendo which guarantees my awake attention.
This is an amazing choice. I just changed all my alarms.
No
“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’
