[edit] Track Title Origin

The plane, Enola Gay, was named after one of the pilots' mothers. This would add additional pertanance to the lyric, "Is mother proud of Little Boy today?"

Indeed, quoting the Wikipedia entry for Enola Gay:
"Tibbets had the plane named after his mother, Enola Gay Tibbets"

[edit] Utah Phillips

Is this the same as the Utah Phillips song?Pustelnik (talk) 19:57, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

In the article about Utah Philips it is said that he wrote this song himself. Andy McCluskey wrote the OMD song: two different songs with the same title. EHonkoop (talk) 09:38, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
