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.
