Carrie Underwood is ready for another football season to commence...the country music superstar will provide the opening theme song again...
Carrie Underwood is ready for another football season to commence. For the fourth year in a row, the country music superstar will provide the opening theme song sequence for Sunday Night Football.
The 2016 season’s version, dubbed “Oh, Sunday Night,” is a little bit country and rock n’ roll. The new song is said to be set to the tune of Underwood’s 2014 chart-topping duet with Miranda Lambert, “Somethin’ Bad.” Besides providing the vocals for the intro, Underwood collaborated with the song’s writers to tweak the lyrics to fit a football theme.
“It has such a great stomp-clap, a ‘We Will Rock You’ kind of feel to it,” said Underwood in a statement regarding the theme song switch. “This is such a high energy song.”
Fans can hear the new song on September 11th when the New England Patriots take on the Arizona Cardinals. Let’s take a look back at the last three years of Carrie at the helm of Sunday Night Football’s energetic intro.
