The BBC has a weird relationship with copyrighted music. They use it a LOT in their programmes. I don't remember the exact details, but I think they have some deal with the major labels where when they pay for flat fee for the use of music in perpetuity, or it's something like that anyway. I don't remember exactly, but there's a reason why you hear copyrighted music in even obviously low budget bbc tv programmes all the time, music that you think would be far too expensive to justify

The BBC has long had a blanket agreement where they don't need to seek permission for use of copyrighted music (phonograms), instead they advise the publisher and copyright holder of the usage and pay a prearranged flat rate fee to MCPS & PRS which eventually reaches the various rights holders. In this case it sounds like the BBC (via TG's production company) paid a flat fee to the composer of the cover, possibly as a perpetual worldwide all formats buyout (fairly common). As a result they wouldn't need to pay any phonogram performance royalties via MCPS for using the cover version, only songwriter/composer royalties to Dickie Betts via PRS for all subsequent public performances. Sure, it's a chunk of money, but nothing like it might be had they not done a buyout.

This intro is so iconic. Even now, in 2024, when I hear that intro - I just get overwhelmed with nostalgia and excitement. This was the perfect theme to compliment the Top Gear Trio: Jezza, Hamster and Slow. You gave this song "Jesisca" a new life and meaning for millions of people across the globe, to the point where most of the people around the world will never associate this song with its origins. To most people, it is "Top Gear." Masterful work, and something to be proud of for sure. Even though, like you said, you have since moved on to make better compositions for other thingsas time went on - this is definitely a staple in your long line of work. Just one of many cornerstones, I'm sure.

After my best friend moved from South Germany to London 16 years ago i payed him a visit and we sat down after dinner and watched TV. He introduced me to Top Gear and instantly it became my most favorite TV show ever. The next years it became a habit to book a flight every 2 months to pay him a visit and just watch Top Gear on Dave or any other channel which has some old episodes in the schedule. The best thing was the music the team at the BBC have chosen for some of the episodes (like for the Disco Volante part) which introduced me to even more wonderful music and composers which are still played every day during work. There have been so many hours of listening to all of their voices, jokes and epic moments. I hoped that The Grand Tour would come close but sadly it never convinced me even though it started very promising. Thanks for sharing the process of creating the theme for it.

I'm old enough to remember the original show and theme very well. When the re-boot came out I was a bit indifferent to the revamped theme, but over the years it has grown on me and has now become even more of a classic than the original in my mind. I guess mainly because I've heard it so many times, but seeing how it was put together is fascinating and what blows my mind is you did this in 4 hours and got paid only £600 for it. That is both incredible and criminal at the same time. What a legend. I don't think it's a bad thing to be known as "the Top Gear guy", but I certainly understand why you'd want to down-play it, because it's very easy to be typecast as a one trick pony.

Here's hoping Dickey and his estate were rewarded for the most widely watched show in the world.

As anyone who has made and recoded music knows: To make it once is amazing. To make it twice is unbelievable.

Thank you for makeing my childhood! This show was amazing and some of my earliest memories are waiting to see if my father would come home and finish work in-time to watch an episode with him!

Some of the best tracks or ideas I've ever had, just came together with pure serendipity.. Some tracks I've spent months trying to finish, tweaking, re-writing.. I should give up, but it's THE very definition of the sunken cost fallacy.. Some tracks I've done were just overnight start to finish, no stopping to think, just throw what works in and improv.. and I've ended up loving it. So, 4 hours to write this iconic intro - I completely understand, it just came together that night!
