Stephen Bunting has changed his walk-on song from "Bird Is The Word" to "Titanium" by David Guetta. He previously used the 1963 track, which gained popularity from the show Family Guy, but found it affected his performance. Bunting admitted he was paid a significant amount to switch songs, stating it made him more nervous and distracted during matches. He did not disclose the exact payment but mentioned it was in the thousands. The new song choice honors his son, who loves "Titanium." Bunting emphasized the importance of crowd support in darts, noting that a good walk-on song can help engage fans.
