I was woken at 6:40 a.m. by "Private Idaho" by the B-52s...I know the DJ did it on purpose (if you don't love it, that song could be a killer that early in the morning) but, it was my favorite song in 6th grade, so after it was over I had to hit the snooze until 7:30 a.m. so I could dream about it

What song woke you up this morning?

none. i use my cell phone as an alarm clock these days, believe it or not. i used to use my mp3 player hooked up to the stereo because it had an alarm function, but it was too untrustworthy. plus, waking up to music is always surreal and kinda annoying, and i don't like getting mad at songs i love.

so i wake up to the sound of a telephone ringing, which i already gladly hate.

I woke up at 10:30 pm last night to "selfish" by slum village. My whole life is lived in the perpetual opposite day of graveyard shift workers, and I love it.

"i hate you"

That song doesn't get much airplay these days...was it the Prince version?

I use my MP3 Player as an alarm. My song was Family Name.

i woke up very gently to "9 Crimes" by Damien Rice playin on the radio.

sure as fck i fell asleep again with that gently trickling into my bed.

so i woke up again about 30 minutes later with Justin's "My Love" and
took a quick shower

the sound of my wife's alarm clock.... beep beep beep beep

Are you serious Apples? The alarm?

I don't need an alarm, I have a 3 year old.

i would die 4 u

my ipod is my alarm.

I don't have a clock radio, but I woke up with Prince's The Voice Inside in my head today.

I use my cell phone. I could set the alarm to be a song, I guess.

I was woken by my mobile phone alarm which is set to play Daft Punk -Technologic, but its starting to annoy me, so Im going to change it. Before that I had Chaka Khan- Aint Nobody.

Wesley Willis the Vultures ate my dead ass up I can let you all hear it if you like

But I must warn you...you will be driven insane for there is nothing quite like it...

Never too much - Luther woke me right up with that

I always seem to wake up a couple minutes before my alarm goes off. I set it each night just in case I don't wake up, but 99% of the time I do.

My alarm clock though also has nature sounds built into it that I leave on all night,to help me sleep. The rain one is my favorite.

wow, that sounds so cool! i just bought a 100 euro new alarmclock
called "the dream machine" and it doesn´t have that function

I haven't used an alarm clock since I stayed on campus. I just use my t.v alarm to wake up. I guess I could use my stereo , but I've gotten so used to using my t.v. I'm always in a rush, so it's not I'll have time to actually listen to music before I'm off. I might start using one again though.....because I saw this Hello Kitty alarm clock with iPod dock that I want so bad.
I swear Hello Kitty is on everything these days.

I woke up to my cell phone alarm a minute before my son's alarm blared " The Jack" by AC/DC... which, of course, even at an ear piercing level he did not wake up to, which made me have to crawl out of bed before my 9 minutes of snooze time was up.

I always have a country western station set for my alarm. Nothing hauls my butt out of bed faster to turn it off. Then I'm up and ready to go.

I slept until nearly 10am!

I have to tell you this... There is a commercial on for a "Goin' South" rock CD and one of the songs on it is "Black Betty" ...I remember years ago you posted a thread about that song and everytime I hear it I think of you

Plus, it's a jam!

My clock radios -- yes, I use two and my cell phone -- are both set to National Public Radio.


Yes, I also like to watch C-SPANs 1 and 2.





Yes, I know I'm a nerd.
