Why not wake up with the alarm which is a specially written jazz / bebop song based on
the Edward Lear nonsense poem "The Owl and the Pussycat" by jazz singer Claire Phoenix
(more info at www.phoenixmusic.org) - it's a great way to start the day!

You can also set the hourly chime which is a section from the chorus and, if you can put up with it,
every second a finger snap (tick).

All sound effects can be turned off if all you want is a good looking clock on your bedside table.

You can set both weekday and weekend alarms which can be set to different times and switches automatically at weekends so there is no more fiddling with alarm times at a weekend.
