They appear ro be playing an obscure Pavement album track as backing music. I don't watch this program much, does this sort of thing happen a lot?

They often use Windowlicker

I remember it used to scare me as a child.

I'm often pleasantly surprised to hear patrs of my record collecton being used as backing music on programs but it's usually some documentary on BBC2 that nobody's watching. Top Gear and Pavement don't seem to be a likely match but it appears from other replies in this thread it's not as surprising as I first thought.
