Carrie Underwood Covers Motley Crue for American Idol

03/11/2009
. (Blabbermouth) "American Idol" star Carrie Underwood tapped into her rock side to record the show's new farewell theme. In keeping with the recent "home" theme of the tunes played as contestants are eliminated from "Idol", Underwood recently tracked a countrified cover of Motley Crue's bitter[cheese] ballad "Home Sweet Home", which will make its debut on Wednesday night (March 11) when this season's first finalist is sent home.

The song will be available as a digital single exclusively on iTunes through March 16, after which it will be released on other online music retail sites.

According to Underwood's official site, a portion of the proceeds will benefit the Humane Society of the United States. - more on this story
