CARRIE UNDERWOOD: No More Waiting for Sunday Night
We won't have to "wait all day for Sunday night," come this fall, thanks to Carrie Underwood's new Sunday Night Football intro.
NBC has announced she'll sing a new theme song, "Oh, Sunday Night," based on her hit duet with Miranda Lambert, "Somethin' Bad." The network says new lyrics and additional changes will be made so the song fits in with football.
Over the past nine years, Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You" has been basis for the theme song, featuring another country star,Faith Hill, but the producers say they were looking for something new. Apparently, Carrie's hit was a great stepping stone.
Together with the original writers of "Somethin' Bad," Carrie changed the lyrics and a bit of the vibe to fit Sunday Night Football needs, and the song will be premiered during the first game telecast on September 11th.
HILLARY SCOTT: Heartbreaking Inspiration
Hillary Scott has mentioned overcoming obstacles several times lately, without going into detail. Fans were left wondering whether or not the Lady Antebellum lead singer was in a good place. Now, several months and a new, spiritual album later, Hilary has opened up to her followers about what she went through.
“Last fall I went through a miscarriage,” Hillary told Good Morning America through tears on Monday. "I also feel like there’s this pressure that you’re just supposed to be able to snap your fingers and continue to walk through life like it never happened."
When it comes to her new single, "Thy Will," Hillary channeled a deep, heartbreaking place to write it, saying, "I wrote this song in the middle of experiencing everything that comes with a miscarriage, so it was at my most raw place that I could have ever been when this song truly poured out of me."
ERIC CHURCH: Surprises 12-Year-Old Fan
Eric Church met a lot of people during CMA Fest, but one, in particular has made headlines.
When 12-year-old Evan Hale headed to town for CMA Fest with his family, he decided to bring his drums and play for the crowds of people on Broadway. He set up shop in front of the Ernest Tubb Record Shop, where Charlie Worsham was later hosting his Midnight Jamboree. After a while, the crowd grew so large, and the drumming was so loud, that management kindly asked him to stop playing.
Although he was upset he wasn't able to continue playing, he did get a bit of a consolation prize. They invited him inside the shop to watch Eric Church and Charlie Worsham play, then afterwards, the boy got to meet his idols.
“It was so great to meet someone in real life that I’d seen in music videos. It was just a really cool experience,” Hale said, adding that when Church told him he’d heard he was a great drummer, it made his day.
Charlie posted a picture to his social media with the story of the boy in the caption, and it has taken social media by storm.
