Remember when your teachers warned you of plagarism? Apparently, even tiny similarities count: The Flaming Lips will split royalties for the song "Fight Test" with Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) according to the terms of an agreement between the two artists' publishing companies. The settlement stems from the similarity between the Lips' new single and Stevens' 1970 song "Father and Son," which the Lips did admit similarities.
