Carrie Underwood sings the new theme to Sunday Night Football, “Oh, Sunday Night.” (1:53)
The new open makes its television debut on Sunday, September 11, before the kickoff of the New England Patriots vs Arizona Cardinals game on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. “Oh, Sunday Night” is set to the music of “Somethin’ Bad,” a chart-topping duet from Carrie and Miranda Lambert which was released in 2014, and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. Carrie worked with the songwriters of “Somethin’ Bad”– Chris DeStefano, Brett James, and Priscilla Renea – to rewrite the lyrics for Sunday Night Football. The result, “Oh, Sunday Night,” was produced by Mark Bright and Chris DeStefano.
In the video version you’ll see on NBC, Carrie is joined in the show open by 12 NFL players, who have accounted for 41 Pro Bowl selections, seven Super Bowl rings, and eight first-round draft picks. Following is the complete list of the players:
- New York Giants WR Odell Beckham, Jr.
- Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown
- Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant
- Seattle Seahawks S Kam Chancellor
- Oakland Raiders LB Khalil Mack
- New York Giants QB Eli Manning
- Arizona Cardinals S Tyrann Mathieu
- Green Bay Packers LB Clay Matthews
- Denver Broncos LB Von Miller
- Arizona Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson
- Seattle Seahawks S Earl Thomas
- Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson
Now, who’s ready for Sunday Night!
