(search— from elvis-costello.net :
>>’’Daddy, Can I Turn This?’’ is the most furious rock song on the album. The title comes from a news account of the last words heard before a plane crash a few years back, right?
That phrase occurs in the transmission from the flight deck of an Aeroflot jet that crashed in Russia. The pilot is supposed to have let his 13-year-old son pilot the plane, and that’s the last thing he’s supposed to have said.
