I am a morning person so I'm probably not really one to comment. However I live with someone who is most definitely an owl rather than a lark. We wake him up with a clock radio. Ours is set to BBC Radio 4 so we are woken up by the news, weather, sports reports etc delivered in nice rounded tones with a smattering of political jokes. For a more raucous waking up you could tune into a rock station? A bit of ACDC first thing would get your eyes open.
