If you wake up to a CD on your alarm clock....

[Papa Deuce]

what song is it?

Mine is intentionally "Runaround Sue".... because I HATE that song and I HAVE to get up and turn it off... so that makes sure that I get out of bed!

but then isn't it stuck in your head all day?

Not at all.

No CD here but I do have the radio station set on a station I don't like. And the alarm is out of arms reach so I have to get out of bed to turn it off, no more smacking it. Although I must say that thing is has to be at least 25 years old and I haven't killed it yet.

No CD but I do keep the radio station set on country music which I cannot tolerate. Also, it's on the other side of the room. Nothing gets me out of bed faster than a little country twang in the morning.

My phone wakes me up to the song "Single Ladies" by Beyonce.

I didn't pick it because I hate it or anything, it's just a very hard song to sleep through.

 

[OK!]

My iPhone wakes me up with the St. Louis Blues March, because right at the beginning it has these piercing horn notes that are audible over the nature-sound machine I sleep with every night. Even if that didn't work, the cat starts hassling me the INSTANT he hears that alarm, and if I somehow managed to sleep through that, I have a backup iHome alarm clock with an old iPod on it that plays whatever song's up next in the playlist.

"Aloha Waikiki"

i have one of those ipod alarm thingers, and i have it set to 'daydream believer' by the monkees, because it's such a great song to wake up to and just puts me in a good mood.


though i do like the idea of putting on a song you don't like so you have to get up and turn it off!! because some days i do press snooze a few too many times.

i'm with pakey on this one. my alarm clock has no CD player, but i keep it tuned to a country music (which i detest) station and i smack the snooze button as soon as i hear the first note. if only i moved that fast the rest of the day, lol.

I usually just set my phone with the normal Blackberry ringtone - it's plenty loud enough to get me out of bed. And I actually have to get up and out of bed - my bed is lofted about 4 feet off the floor in my dorm. And then if I ever put my iHome on it's usually "Good Morning Starshine" from HAIR.

I don't mind getting up in the morning and usually get out of bed before the alram goes off. I've been kind of an early morning guy since I was a teenager.

I love music and have considered getting some kind of iPod/alarm system, but I'd just get up and leave the room anyway I have a 30 gig ipod in a boombox in the kitchen that remains on shuffle for background music.
