Carrie Underwood kicked off NBC’s Sunday Night Football last night (September 12th) with a new opening sequence. She says as she enters her ninth season of performing the opening song, “Waiting All Day For Sunday Night” — based on Joan Jett’s “I Hate Myself For Loving You” – says it’s great to be back to help get fans excited for the game.

“It is always a pleasure to get to do the Sunday Night Football open. We are back this year. It’s always interesting and a challenge to try and figure out what we’re gonna do with things year after year and how we’re gonna keep it new and fresh. This year they came up with being on this super high-tech set. It was just such a cool environment to get to be in. I felt like I was in a stadium being on a set in L.A. It was super cool, and I feel like it turned out that way as well. But we’re all about bringing the hype and energy and getting people ready for a great game. So, it’s fun to be back!”

Carrie, who can be heard with Dan + Shay for the song “Only Us” on the soundtrack for the film, Dear Evan Hansen, can also be heard singing the soaring duet “If I Didn’t Love You” with Jason Aldean.
