Hello Chintysq,


It sounds like you're experiencing some issues with your favorite song playing when using alarms. We will be happy to assist you.


Let's make sure the music downloaded locally to your iPhone. It's possible that the song in question may not be downloaded to your iPhone. Try these steps and then test by setting up a new alarm: Add music to iPhone and listen offline. We hope this helps.


Cheers!
