Carrie Underwood will open Super Bowl XLIX with an adjusted Sunday Night Football theme music video.
I would imagine that Carrie will be at home watching the game as she is getting closer and closer to becoming a first time mommy. However, her image and voice will help get the 2015 Super Bowl started.
Carrie has opened all the Sunday Night Football games this season with her music video of the theme for the weekly game on NBC. This Sunday the theme has been adjusted with the words "Waiting All Day for a Super Bowl Fight."
The lyrics have also been revised to set up the match up between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. The video montage of the theme song will also feature some new elements not yet seen in the Sunday Night Football opens this season and a specially designed set for the Super Bowl.
In a press release Carrie said: "I’m so honored to again be a part of the Super Bowl, this time joining NBC Sports in helping kick everything off! I can’t wait to watch the game!”
Super Bowl XLIX festivities will be broadcast live from Glendale, Arizona starting at 1pm central time Sunday, February 1st on NBC TV with the game scheduled to start at 5:30pm central time.
