Hi,
I would really like to have a new alarm clock, since I have to trust one unreliable bitch of mobile phone to wake me in the morning. Most of the time I am late, which is okay for most of the time, because I am self-employed, but on the other hand I (and noone else) has to be there for my customers, therefore it would be a great help.

Limp Bizkit – Nookie

because I like hitting the snooze, and why would I pick a song that I actually like??? it would fucking ruin it if I heard it every morning

http://schweissundherzblut.de Florian

that’s one of these really difficult questions but my pick is:

fugue-the sleep of reason produces monsters

Natasha

Nick Drake – Know
Album- Pink moon

http://webearnothing.tumblr.com LaRon

Washed Out – Get Up

Jason Zemore

LCD Soundsystem – Home

Daria

school of seven bells – half asleep
I do, quite often wake up to it…
as well as Chemical Brothers – Dissolve

awh. I wish I had this alarm clock, this way probably the sound of music I wake up to would be so much clearer, I have a really dodgy one, London-student life can be a nightmare

Anyways, goodmorning to everyone
yaawn

http://flickr.com/johannwatzke JW

I’d love to have an alarm clock by muji !

If i’d wake up to a song for the rest of my life it would be “Part I” of the “Koln Concert” by “Keith Jarrett”.

‘Used to Be’ by Beach House is definitely my favorite morning song.

Seriously nice clock. I can’t stop thinking Wake up, Arcade Fire and not just because of the title.. But if this is forever then instead I’ll have to go with:

I died so I could haunt you – Stars

http://www.ruivitorinosantos.blogspot.com rui

My wake up-call should be:

Mad Men Theme Song… with a twist!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEj0z0maxzM

uep

It’s got to be ‘Wake Up’ by Rage Against the Machine. Climaxing with the screamed mantra of the song’s title, which seeks to encourage the listener–in this case–to get out the hell out of bed.

http://askmeaboutme.tumblr.com philipalanoneal

High Road by Broken Bells great song to get you rolling in the mornin’.

Street Fighting Man by RollingStones for some reason I never get tired of this.

http://breadtobeeaten.wordpress.com Brent

This is a question about what kind of person I am.

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up but stays in bed: Eisley’s “Trollywood”.

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up and actually gets up: Peter Bjorn’s and Scarlett Johannson’s “Relator”

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up from a coma and is afraid to fall asleep every night: The Cranberries’ “Every Morning”

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up and wants to be in a ladies’ rock band: Tegan and Sara’s “Back in Your Head”

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up and wants to be a lady: Endless Noise’s remix of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”. (I swear, this bit would make even Donald Trump put on some heels.)

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up in the morning with a blunt club on the night stand and my spare room stocked with unperishables (for the zombie attack): Modest Mouse’s “Tiny City Made of Ashes”

If I’m the kind of guy who wakes up a zombie: white noise will be fine.

(Also, so we’re clear, The Arcade Fire’s “Wake Up” is an awful song to actually wake up to.)

http://www.facebook.com/nocha Nosha Mckenna

Cool answer
Manda

Arcade Fire’s might be awful for you, but I’d stand by it.. Nothing wrong with a song that inspires a little self-psychoanalysis in the morning IMO!

You know that’s an unfair question! I can never listen to the same song too many times or it starts to lose its meaning. I hide away my favorite songs and only listen to them once and a while, so that they mean more when I do hear them.

On that note, I suppose I’d have to say the theme song ‘Still Alive’ from the video game Portal. A bit of dark robot humor to wake up to every morning.

As, in a way, every day can be a Sunday in our minds. Or, even if it’s a Wednesday, it can start with the delusion to be a Sunday
Have a nice weekend.

Michael Neumann

If I had this amazing Alba alarm clock from Furni I would want to wake up to Tea For the Tillerman by Cat Stevens every day for the rest of my life! It starts off nice and subtle so as not jar me out of sleep and the volume peaks as a chorus of people sing “happy day”, how better to start your day than on a positive note like that?

“Bring tea for the Tillerman / Steak for the son / Wine for the woman who made the rain come / Seagulls sing your hearts away / ‘Cause while the sinners sin, the children play / Oh Lord how they play and play / For that happy day, for that happy day”

Girl Talk- Oh No

mia

people, i don’t know what kind of ” i can get out of bed with my favorite song”-people you are, … but to be honest: listening to my favorite, i would stay in bed longer.
2) my favorite song changes; i would love to hear TIGER LOUs song “the warmth” to get up, but i now, i wouldnt.

to be logical:
IF … my favorite wouldn’t get me out of bed [A]
AND … my favorite intends that i like the song [B]

BUT … the aim is to get OUT of bed [C]

THEN … the conclusion has to be (philosophical/logical):
[C] = ]A[
I have to choose a song, i really DON’T LIKE (not to say hate)…

WHICH BRINGS ME TO:
choice 1 : WHAM! – “Last Christmas”
choice 2: Celine Dion – “my heart will go on”

–> OBJECTION:
i DO have a really deeply sleep. so, even though i do do do do do do (…) hate the song of celine dion (and it would be my number one choice of songs that make me puke) i gonna choose “LAST CHRISTMAS”, because it’s louder.

Yes i’m the 409th, i must absolutly win!

As salutation to the morning, I would choose “Yellow submarine” by the almighty Beatles. No, not the song but their magnificent movie. I’m not sure whether I will get up on time, but I will always be full of wonder.

If a fillm isn’t allowed by the absolute strict rules of the contest, I would prefer that beeping sound. BEEP BEEP BEEP. and again BEEP BEEP BEEP. It will be less wonderfull, but most likely I will be showing up in time than.

I tend to develop a hate relationship with alarm song.

So… let’s have a BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP -BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP…..

…that could be a song…3,2,1 Sing with me :

BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP – BEEP BEEP BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP…

And no, we’re not robots

The Beatles – Good Day Sunshine

There are many lovely songs to wake up to, but to wake up to one song for the rest of one’s life requires inexhaustible beauty, intrinsic immortality that falls nothing short of celestial art. Thus it must be:

~~Andrea Bocelli – Con te Partiro~~

Mr Blue Sky – Electric Light Orchestra

http://culltheelderly.blogspot.com Nick

I would choose “Sirius” by the Alan Parsons Project. It’s the music the Chicago Bulls play when they do their player introductions. Always gets my blood pumping. And it starts off nice and quiet and builds, so it’s not going to be a sudden violent jolt of noise.

i would love to wake up to the sounds of: the naked and famous – young blood

“Mark on the Bus” by the Beasties… the right speed to start these early mornings^^

Noa Abarbanel

I an a big fan of alarm clocks, specifically if they come with radios!
These days I want to wake up to the backing up song, I love it!

evening, morning;
bombay bicycle club

Bald É.

Rachel’s – Wally, Egon & Models In The Studio
(from Music For Egon Schiele)

calming 20 second intro and after that, if you need the sound, the song stays in a piano chill zone for another 1:07 until a cello gently walks into the room.

I’d like to wake up to Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix.

i spent an entire year waking up to a cassette tape that had Unwound (Fake Train) on one side and Universal Order of Armageddon (S/T) on the other. When I started the year I didn’t like either band, but I was determined to change that. By the end, their music was so hardwired into my synapses that it’s stayed with me to this day. But if I have to pick one song, it’s DRAGNALUS by unwound.

Setting your favourite song to be an alarm sound is a waste because sooner or later you’re gonna hate it:)
I reckon an attractive item doesn’t need to bribe you to look at it and then touch it…and let the music be its good supplement. I choose Carbon Based Lifeforms – Set Theory.

Ugh, the alarm clock application I downloaded for my computer can’t access my updated iTunes list. So I’ve been waking up to Scanners – Lowlife everyday since 2007. As much as I love the song, being equipped with another option might be nice.

kat

when i was in high school, we lived within range of a college radio station. they would start the broadcast each morning at 7am with “Hello, Hello” as a lead in to the morning programming. i got in the habit of falling asleep with the radio on. the station went off-air at about 2am, so the 7am return was like an alarm clock. i’d listen to that song in the morning just for the nostalgia!
