All kidding aside, if you want to be gently woken up, get the alarm clock I have which has a light that slowly increases in intensity over several minutes before your set time. Then at the set time, soft music starts playing.
It is way better than any alarm that suddenly starts playing at a set time.
Just checked; apparently they’re called sunrise alarm clocks:

It’s more effective at getting you out of bed.

Boomtown Rats can work for Monday too.

So what’s wrong with “Monday Monday” by the Mamas and the Papas?

How does Rat get Pig’s phone open so he CAN change the ringtone?

I have to wake up in eight hours to let my landlord and a worker in to repair my apartment. Maybe I should get to sleep soon.

Not worries, Pig. Just do the Happy Monday dance with Garfield.

“Eye of the Tiger” would be a good choice, too, Rat.

Rat is a horrible rodent being.

Wayne Newton’s “Kill ’em All” is much more morning appropriate.

Rat decided, correctly, that harp music isn’t going to get anyone out of bed.
ekw555 over 1 year ago
“Kill ’Em All” is an album title, not a song title.
none of the 10 tracks have that name.I am imagining that was perhaps “Hit The Lights”, “Seek & Destroy” or “Whiplash”

I use Allman Bros. “Blue Sky.”

I know Mondays suck, but the least Rat could do is make them SLIGHTLY more enjoyable.

My son tells me some Metal bands use harps too.…Poor harps.

Does anyone remember Brenda Spencer in San Diego? I certainly do. She lived in my area.

Rat thrives on chaos, especially Mondays…

Mr. Blue Sky would be a happy, yet invigorating way.

Oh, Stephan… Kill ’Em All is an ALBUM, not a song…

I have a friend who plays the organ at church. It weighs a ton. Does that make her a heavy metal musician?!?
bigdawgjohn over 1 year ago
it’s ok Pig Rat should’ve set it to Seek and Destroy

Pig, be glad it wasn’t the Dell – “Don’t Worry Be Happy” whistling commercial.
Spiny Norman Premium Member over 1 year ago
I like Mondays. There’s fewer people on the beach.
Phydeux over 1 year ago
For pig it should be “Dazed and Confused”.
NWdryad over 1 year ago
My alarm is set to Enter Sandman.
Brian Collis over 1 year ago

Some day I’m going to murder the bugler
Some day they’re going to find him dead
I’ll amputate his revellie,and step upon it heavily
And spend the rest of my life in bed

I knew it was Monday when the nearby Army base blew “Reveille” twice.

My ringtone is something starts and stays semi-loud and noticeable but isn’t jarring. I went with the Who’s opening to Baba OReily.

Rat’s ploy did get you up and out of bed, Pig….
paullp Premium Member over 1 year ago
Reminds me of an occasion in my teens when I fell asleep with the radio on. I woke up to the opening bars of Elton John’s Funeral for a Friend.
edeloriea14 over 1 year ago
“Enter Sandman” or a remake of “Whiskey in a Jar” are the Metalllica songs.

If you really want to be devious set it to Battery from Master of Puppets. It goes from an acoustic 1 to thrash 11 real fast!

It got you out of bed, didn’t it? You’re welcome.

I prefer “Noise” by Nightwish as an alarm.
