Who else misses football season? I absolutely do (and I’d relive the Eagles beating the brakes off the Chiefs. Remember Chiefs fans, it was 40-6 for the LONGEST TIME.)

Enter Anna Yannessa, a local lead singer in the band “Yani” who brought a football season favorite tune to her American Idol audition. Yannessa sang Carey Underwood’s “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” song in the tune of “I Hate Myself for Loving You” by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.

Yannessa seems to have made it to Hollywood week, where we might expect more NFL references?

You can watch American Idol on Sundays and Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC. It is also available on Hulu the following day.
