Top Gear or Lotus Turbo Challenge 2?

I was just reading the Wiki page for the SNES game Top Gear (don't ask me why, my brain goes to weird places when I'm procrastinating) and I saw something interesting about the music in Top Gear. It was apparently just lifted straight out of another racing game called Lotus Turbo Challenge 2. So, if Bellamy did indeed compose the intro from Bliss by ripping off Top Gear he ripped off a game which had already ripped off another game!

To me, it's even more likely Bellamy got the music from Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 rather than Top Gear too, because Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 was on the Amiga. I recall Bellamy saying in the Teignmouth interview he did with BBC3 that he had an Amiga as a kid. Since whether or not he got the intro from Top Gear or not is a bone of contention anyway, I thought this might be an interesting tidbit. Either that or I need to get out more.
