Hey mama is so sexist. I was shocked when I listened to the lyrics @niki van oppens

I set my favorite song as an alarm once and I ended up hating It because anytime I heard it I associated it with waking up

I set my alarm every morning so I don't over sleep 😃

If you love one song,never use it as your alarm,or you won't wanna hear it again,I swear

Any song by 21 pilots or fall out boy is enough to get my blood pumping!

Blurred Lines just because it has a punchy start and Pharell shouts "everybody get up!" It's a good wake up call that works lol

Ain't It Fun

Happy and also Hey mama from David Guetta

My son is my alarm system.

I set my alarm to Shake it Off by Taylor Swift!
