If so, which song?
HT: theme from Trigun
not currently but in the past I used jethro tulls solstice bells and kelpie.
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.
I wake up to iPhone‘s disgusting alarm, but I shave listening to Slayer - Raining Blood
I use Your New Morning Alarm by Marc Rebillet
Yes, I use Teh Internets from the Super Meat Boy soundtrack.
“Just Us” by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross
Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien by Edith Piaf, for reasons (yt)
I use the radio, so that I don’t get conditioned to hate one specific song, but still have something more pleasant than an alarm tone (which I’d also grow to hate)
My alarm for the longest time was Saku by DIR EN GREY
In the Shadow or the Valley from New Vegas. Try it. You will enjoy.
The office intro
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.
This.
Now I just have a generic alarm signal because I would like to keep enjoying the music I like
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.
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.
I used to use the beginning of clutch’s psychic warfare. The first track is some low murdering, and then it comes in hard with X-ray visions. Always woke me right up.
I also used slothrust’s “like a child hiding behind your tombstone” for a while. That also starts a little quiet and then ramps up. Never hated the song, somehow. https://slothrust.bandcamp.com/track/like-a-child-hiding-behind-your-tombstone
Now I just have one of the default alarms and I kind of hate it.

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.
