Need help in developing a clock application

Dear frens , I am planning to a build a clock application specifically as alarm using swings ,where the application could be run as a product.I am new to swings ,pplease tell what all knowledge i should have to get it done.

The clock will contain the following

1.Alarm facility.
2.The user can choose the music he wants
3.The user can even enter the song he wants.
4.the skin of the clock shouls be changable.
5.time duration of the sound can be set.
6. volume also can be set

Frankly friends im a beginner in java ,suggest me how i can play music using java and all that i have to read to get this done.

FIne tuning with swings is also a problem

This is quite an involved project for someone who's new to Java. If this is a personal app, I would recommend choosing something simpler before tackling this task.

Here's the basic Java tutorials:

Learning the Java Language

The next step I would recommend is learning about swing:

Graphical User Interfaces (The Java Tutorials)

Lastly, there's the Java sound API:
