Once again, American Idol season 4 winner Carrie Underwood is singing the Sunday Night Football theme. The new intro clip, featuring a brand new song titled “Game On” debuted on NBC on September 9.  Check out the FULL clip below.

When Carrie took over the SNF theme song from Faith Hill in 2013, she re-recorded “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” a reworked version of Joan Jett’s “I Hate Myself For Loving You.” In 2016, Carrie introduced “Oh Sunday Night,” which took elements from her 2014 duet hit with Miranda Lambert, “Somethin’ Bad.”

“We wrote a new song for it, because I feel like they’re always open to that, and they’re always looking for ways to freshen things up,” said Carrie. “So, they always just say, ‘Hey! If you’ve got anything else back there, whatever you’re working on, bring it. We’ll see how we feel about it.’ This year we wrote a song called ‘Game On’ for the opening, and it was just a lot of fun. It’s a lot of fun getting to be a part of football. I grew up watching football, of course, and watching Sunday Night Football, and to just to have kind of a little part to the whole thing is pretty cool and pretty special.”
