Tom Petty might just be about to sue the Red Hot Chili Peppers... and this is why...

Dani California sounds almost exactly the same as Petty's song, Mary Jane's Last Dance...

    I guess PJ should be sued for Given to Fly? This is pure bs.

    no, because Robert Plant himself said that he didn't notice any real similarity between and Given to Fly and Going to California and if there was, he said that he believed Pearl Jam didn't do it on purpose. Petty apparently doesn't have the same idea as far as the Peppers go

    the only real similarity in Given To Fly is ed's vocal melody which is no big deal.

    and Tom Petty writes minimalist songs..

    the chili's have gotten less creative throughout the years (whether or nor you think it's still good music)..

    sheer coincidence
