Carrie UnderwoodCarrie Underwood’s voice now appears alongside the "king" of Rock ‘n’ Roll on the Elvis Presley Christmas Duets CD in Elvis' classic version of “I’ll be Home for Christmas.”  Underwood considers the experience to be an honor. She said, “Priscilla actually asked if I would be part of the project, so when Priscilla Presley asks you to sing with Elvis, you do it.” Underwood, the 25-yea-old American Idol winner, told Entertainment Tonight, “I never thought I'd be singing a duet with Elvis Presley. It's very surreal; I think I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it a little bit. But I am very honored."Elvis Presley Christmas Duets also features the voices of LeAnn Rimes with “Here Comes Santa Claus,” Martina McBride singing “Blue Christmas” and Olivia Newton-John singing “O Come, All Ye Faithful.” The album is in stores now.
