**Page And Plant On Pearl Jam** 
 
Almost immediately after Pearl Jam's "Given To Fly" hit airwaves last
year, many people noticed a striking similarity between that song and Led
Zeppelin's "Going 
To California" from its classic fourth album.
 
So when Zep alumni Jimmy Page and Robert Plant sat down with MTV News
last week to discuss their new album, "Walking To Clarksdale," the topic
of that Pearl Jam track eventually came up.
 
"I know that they haven't heard 'Going to California,'" said Plant rather
modestly, "so it's just one of those amazing coincidences. Do you think
that somebody sang 
it to them in the cradle or something like that and it just came back? I
don't know ... I don't think they'd have heard that though, it's a bit
obscure, isn't it?"
 
Pearl Jam also says any similarities between the two songs are
coincidental. As we previously reported (see "Page and Plant Set Tour
Dates"), Page and Plant will launch its U.S. tour May 19 in Pensacola,
Florida, while Pearl Jam will hit the road June 20 in Missoula, Montana.
