What song/sound plays on your alarm to wake you up in the morning?

I was listening to The Porch Podcast on my way into work this morning and the topic of waking up in the morning came up.  It randomly got me thinking about evolution of what has been my alarm clock.  It's been the "buzz" sound to songs like Van Halen's "Eruption," The Beach Boys "Wouldn't It Be Nice," and Guster's "What You Wish For." What do or have you used to help wake you up in the morning?
I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Which ever I choose that’s already on the phone no way do I want a song to wake me , just a plain alarm works best for me ..

    I have a sleep app which uses a very soft kind of song, which gets louder if I don't grab it.
    This is helpful as I travel constantly, and my wife would wake up at 2-3-4-5 am (depending on my flight times) regularly if had anything with volume or strong sounds.  This would not be good.

    Right now I'm using the standard "buzz" on my alarm clock.  I've seemingly become a deeper sleeper over the years and music sometimes won't wake me up.

    "EEENT! EEENT! EEEENT! EEENT! EEENT! EEENT! EEENT!"

    I use an actual alarm clock that plugs into the wall and sits on your nightstand.  Remember those things?  Pepperidge Fahm remembas!

    my current one is Til The Sun Comes Back Around by Chris Cornell. it's usually something on the softer side. I hate waking up to a raging metal song, or even the beeping alarm clock. Fucking hate it. I need to be eased into the day. Cornell works perfectly for that. 

    My 10 year old, after I had hit snooze on my phone, started yelling at me from her room 'TURN IT BACK ON! I WANT TO HEAR THE REST OF THAT SONG! I LIKE IT!". 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    Oh yeah, I had this for a while as well!  Honestly, the beginning is perfect for an alarm.

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
