Luke Bryan is the king of playful romantic anthems. One notable example is his 2014 hit “Play It Again,” about a boy who instantly falls in love with a girl at a tailgate party. The chart-topper is full of Bryan’s trademark charm and the carefree nature he brings to most songs. It’s a crowd favorite at concerts—although perhaps no performance will ever top this duet with fellow country superstar Carrie Underwood. Watch below.
Remember When Carrie Underwood Surprised Luke Bryan Fans?
Back in May 2017, Luke Bryan kicked off his Huntin’, Fishin’ And Lovin’ Every Day Tour at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. The crowd’s cheers were already deafening when the American Idol judge sang the opening notes to “Play It Again.” As he reached the end of the first verse (She jumped up and cut me off), Bryan pointed across the stage to where Carrie Underwood stood.
The American Idol season 4 champion joined in on the chorus as she made her way toward Luke Bryan. She handed him a yellow baseball cap, which the “Mind of a Country Boy” singer promptly put on backwards in his trademark style. The two proceeded to sing directly into each other’s faces, their voices harmonizing perfectly.
It’s always a joy to see two major stars collaborating, rather than competing. “It doesn’t get any more perfect than Luke and Carrie,” commented a fan on a YouTube video of the performance. “My two favorite country artists.”
“The fans reaction, were like, that isn’t Carrie,” another user chimed in. “And then, Carrie started singing. Yes, it is Carrie.”
Several YouTube users wished the pair would officially record a duet version of the song. “I could listen to them 2 all day long for sure,” one fan said.

Fans Say Bryan Should Have Been a “Girl Dad”
Luke Bryan shares two teenage sons with wife Caroline. However, a sweet encounter with a young fan has many convinced that the five-time Entertainer of the Year missed his calling as a “girl dad.”
On Thursday (July 18) Bryan shared a Week 4 highlight from his Mind of a Country Boy Tour to his Instagram page. The “Knockin’ Boots” singer twirled a young girl around before leading her to the front of the stage and belting out Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.” As it turns out, the little girl’s name was also Caroline.
