    If so, what kind of music?

    I have the AM radio news on my alarm clock...all the news of the day seeps in while I'm sleeping...doesn't wake me up, I have an alarm clock on my cell phone that does.

    I use my cell phone. My alarm is an old fashioned phone ringing.

    Haven't used an alarm clock in twenty years. I wake up when I need to.

    cell phone alarm, beep beep beeep..............beep beep beep.....

    But I often wake up on my own before that goes off.

    It's all about not changing your weekend schedule too much.

    Both.

    I have a standard alarm, and also set my phone on top of the radiator so it vibrates while playing some tupac song. No snooze for me. That shit completely wakes me up.

    I have to setup 3 alarms in order to wakeup. All are loud, annoying alarm sounds.

    I wake up to The Red Telephone by Love. As soon as the first sound comes from my phone I'm instantly awake.

    The Blazer Trumpets are my ring tone and my alarm clock. Sometimes I sleep through them and dream about Bill Schonely.

    Neither. I don't set an alarm. My head seems to have one built in.

    Got 3 and 5 year old boys. I've learned the hard way that no matter how soundly I'm sleeping, I need to protect the nads at the first sound of the doorknob turning, or some kid is going to land a heel on them.

    That kind of instant terror is quite effective at waking one up.
