Underwood will also be joined by NFL stars (to be announced on Monday) in the new show open. …At the invitation of Underwood, Jett – whose 1988 Top 10 hit “I Hate Myself for Loving You” was adapted for the original “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” SNF show open music in 2006 – appears for the first time in the NBC Sunday Night Football show open. ![]() NBC…will unveil an all-new show open with Carrie Underwood this season, with a nod to the first-ever NBC SNF open in 2006 featuring a new rendition of the original “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” music.

When NBC got Sunday night rights in 2006, they brought in the “Waiting All Day For Sunday Night” song based off Joan Jett’s “I Hate Myself For Loving You” versions of that song were used from 2006 through 2015, with Pink (2006), Faith Hill (2007-2012), and Carrie Underwood (2013-15) performing it.
