Tom, Tom, the piper's son

As I noted in my Twitter feed, I really liked the Foo Fighters' new song, Wheels, a lot...when it was called Learning to Fly by Tom Petty and The Hearbreakers:

Learning To Fly - Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers





Wheels - The Foo Fighters





Then again, it's not like Tom and the boys are new to this sincerest form of flattery. After all, The Red Hot Chili Peppers did it on their album, Stadium Arcadium:

Mary Jane's Last Dance - Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers





Dani California - The Red Hot Chili Peppers





And, certainly, no one was more blatant in their sincerity to flatter when it came to The Strokes:


American Girl - Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers





Last Nite - The Strokes
