"great songs to WAKE UP to"


  

          

i just downloaded an app to make my alarm in the morning be a song.
im REALLY pumped about this. i cant tell you how much i hate regular alarm tones.
so what are some good tunes?
im looking for stuff that starts really quiet and builds up so it sort of wakes you up naturally, but also something thats just beautiful and will make you feel really good in the morning.

my first stab is gonna be the first track on Broken Social Scene's first album - ambient rock kinda vibe, but when the guitar notes come in (1:06), it just feels like waking up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTCtlpNfetQ

suggestions?

just the opening horns and the part where she says "everybody get up!"

for years it was the intro on the Dungeon Family song "Rollin"

A former student used to wake up to Wanna be Startin Somethin.

im not talking about the first song you listen to in the morning AFTER you're up.
im talking about songs to ACTUALLY wake up to...on some Coming To America symphony above your bed type shit.
