School has started and my teen refuses to use an alarm, leaving me to do the wakeup myself. As thr door is locked, I cannot gently awaken them. So, I decided music was great and chose the following 3 songs (played in this order and the reaction):
- Viva La Vida - Coldplay
- [quiet groans from inside, no movement]
- Baby Shark
- [whimpers and the sound of pillows shuffling]
- Welcome to the Jungle - Guns & Roses
- [door flew open, I was forced to flee]
So three songs seems to be the sweet spot. I’d like to keep it fresh and change daily so they can’t adapt. Please give me your 3-song playlist so I can continue to psychologically torture wake my child for school every day.
Cum on Feel the Noize - Slade

What what in the butt - Samwell

my bet is they be up by the time #3 is on.
I’ve been everywhere man - The Beggars (Aussie edition)
no 2nd or 3rd song needed :3

It gets less accommodating the more they don’t get up !!
Killing in the name of - Rage Against the MachineBeen suggested before. Instead, try this:
The last one is from a portuguese punk band. The way the singer opens the song never fails to open a couple of eyes.
Chop suey
Alternatively
Your new morning alarm by Mark Rebillet
Meshuggah - bleed, Marc rebillet morning alarm , Miley Cyrus - party in the USA
Came to make sure this was posted. Has gotten me out of bed for the last 3 years.
GTF out of bed B go
1: Good Morning Vietnam monologue. 2: Whatever march music you find appropriate. I’d recommend the March of the Red Cavalry. 3: Dead Kennedys: Kill The Poor.
Substance by Haste the Day.
This used to be my alarm clock, the abrupt opening is very jarring, in a good way for waking up.
Might i suggest a better alternative
Good morning sunshine by the narcissist cookbook
One - creed
Detachable penis - king missle
Everybody shooters too - 42 dugg
It’s opinionated, but anyway here’s my list lol
Toots & the Maytals - Broadway Jungle then The Toasters - I’m Running Right Through The World and finally Reel Big Fish - She Has a Girlfriend Now
Your teenager will feel like new
- MELT-BANANA - The Hive
- Anna Meredith - Nautilus
- Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy
If they’re not enough for your child to choose an alarm instead, I don’t know what is.
My entire senior year i had a cd player alarm clock that played reel big fish’s cover of “take on me” every morning at 6am after not getting any sleep the night before. It definitely got me up and going.
