On the TV commercial for Saab was the song (Release Me?) written for the commercial or is it a full length song? If so who sings it and what is the correct title?
Cheers!

Last week you had a day for people to call in about things or people they were searching for. There was a lady who rang up searching for Safari perfume, I didnt hear it all as I have 3 kids and was wondering if it was the Safari for women she was looking for and if some one had found it. My mum loves this perfume too but we can't find it for her. Hope you can help, thanks :)

Why, when travelling north on the Kwinana Freeway, does the right hand lane at Berrigan drive travel slower than the left hand lane?

In the spy movies when they are talking about spiking someones drink with an odourless, colourless and tasteless poison... how do they know its tasteless without tasting? (and subsequently dying).. Is there really such a poison? LOL

I want to know who was the talented person that came up with the idea of a very short bus lane along Beaufort St. Just so cars can back up on the inside lane because someone wants to turn right.... I would like to take him / her out to lunch if he / she can get a day pass out of Graylands Hospital

This is probably not the sort of question you are looking for but I would like to know how people can get through to you so quickly almost before the bunch have finished asking the question or whatever. Thanks.

I'm curious about how you compile your library. Does Mix purchase individual songs, or entire albums? How do you decide?
Posted by Helen Naylor Friday 28 March, 2008 10:41 AM
Hi Bunch,
Re: your chat with Rod Stewart and his payment in car carpets for singing "In a Broken Dream" with Python Lee Jackson. I remember this song well from my youth when in the U.K. It is a great song. I can't believe you haven't heard of it.
My question is:
Do you not have this track in your library and, if so, when can we hear it being played?

Hello There,
Kenneth Maguire from Ireland here.
Did you hear that the International Rules Series (more than likely) will return this year?
I was in Perth in 2003. It reminded me of New York. 1998 was the year that I was there.
Goodbye for now,
Kenneth Maguire

My father (aged 85) and his old army mate always quoted poetry - well at least parts of poems. This one has always bugged us because we never heard the whole poem (may be it's a dirty ditty?) But now Dad can't remember it. Can anybody fill in the blanks?...

Bicycle riders are supposed to ride single file. Why do groups of 10 or 15 ride around in the mornings, 3 and 4 abreast blocking lanes and holding up traffic, in Guildford? Particularly on these single lane bridges we have.
Mix 94.5 says,
Riders can only legally be 2 abreast on the roads.

why are there blue cats eyes in Subiaco?
Mix 94.5 says,
Blue cats eyes denote fire hydrants. You'll notice they are slightly offset from the centre of the road to show which side of the road the hydrant is located.

Do all the places that have Daylight Savings Time adjust their clocks on the same two days of the year?
Mix 94.5 says
Hi Joanne, this page will give you some historical data on the implementation of Daylight Saving, and you can see from it that Tasmania starts it earlier than anyone else, and that WA starts the same as the Eastern States but stops it one week earlier. Thanks for your question.

Could you please tell me the name of the drum instrument that was on the show
Cheers Brian
Mix 94.5 says
Brian, it was called a Hang Drum, and you can see it in action off our home page. Thanks for your question.
Posted by Brian Morley Thursday 7 February, 2008 09:46 PM
Hi Guys
Heard you talking about a guy who works in a Didgeridoo shop in Fremantle who plays the hang drum but you couldn't remember the name. His name is Jesse and the shop is called Didgeridoo Breath at 6 Market St, Fremantle. It's a rocking didgeridoo shop with loads of didgeridoos, concerts and lessons... they teach you o play for free! Keep up the great work.
Posted by Matt Reed Thursday 7 February, 2008 07:54 AM
the hang is not a wok but the other asian sooking pot, the "steam boat" with the lid on, looks like it was designed by a couple of wasted euro doods messing around with special herbs in the broth

why is it that once the `seal` is broken you have to keep going.
Joss says,
I assume that your bladder can hold a certain amount without needing to go, then as you continue drinking, your body can only process a certain amount at a time, hence you'll have to keep emptying it as you are filling it faster that it can process it.

How come you guys never play anything from the Long Road Out Of Eden album. It went to No 1 selling album in Australia and do hear anything on Mix.... No!
I' m going challenge you. Play, Waiting in the Weeds, just once, and see what the reaction is from your listners. Go on, I dare you. It's as good as Hotel Califorina, any day!
