What songs do you think would be good for an alarm call?

You lose points for the obvious, eg: Boo Radleys, Wham (or "What" as I typoed ).

Anyhow, for sheer shock value, I was thinking of:


Only in my head it keeps segueing into Final Countdown danananahhh dananahnanaa.

Awesome song in its own right.

My alarm likes to throw on a Mario/Closer Remix... My personal favourite was always Radio Protector by 65 days of Static. Nice ease into being dragged awake by the scruff of the neck.



It doesn't normally have that speech in the middle of it though.. No idea where thats from.

I like Jesus but he loves me so it's awkward.

I find whichever song I have as my alarm I end up really disliking after a while, presumably cuz I start associating it with the pain of waking up earlier than I want to. It needs to be something with a pretty abrubt start. It's been Jamie T for the last few months, never get tired of that for some reason.
