Carrie Underwood has performed the ‘NBC Sunday Night Football’ theme song for over a decade, but she initially turned down the gig
Carrie Underwood has performed the NBC Sunday Night Football theme song for over a decade now — recording a new version and filming an accompanying video each year — but she initially turned down the gig.
NBC then offered the gig to Pink, who sang the adaptation of Joan Jett’s song “I Hate Myself for Loving You,” titled “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night,” for one football season. Faith Hill then took over for six years before deciding to move on. Once NBC had an opening, they decided to ask Underwood for the second time.
This year’s version of “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night,” which viewers will hear for the first time when SNF kicks off on Sunday, September 8, is a bit different.
