Da, da da ta da… HIMYM Theme Song
So tonight I’m cruising around Wikipedia and I decided to check out the How I Met Your Mother page. I’m looking around, seeing mostly stuff I already know, but noticed they attribute the theme song to “The Solids”. “I’ve always wondered who that song was about”, I say to myself. I’ve been meaning to research it for one of my “Music from…” pieces. I figured tonight was as good a night as any to track down the MP3. I checked the usual iTunes Music Store to no avail. So I hit google up for some answers. I found the band’s site, www.thesolids.com, and found that while they have links to many of their songs, the theme song entitled “Hey Beautiful” was still “coming soon.” I did some more digging and they have a myspace page that will play the song, but doesn’t have a way to download it. I did some further digging and found out other people were also looking for a way to download it.
Well tonight I present to you, in shiny MP3 format, The Solids – Hey Beautiful for your downloading pleasure. The part we are all so familiar with starts around 3:08 near the end of the track.
In my search I also found out that two of the band members are connected to the show in more ways than one. Craig Thomas (drums and backing vocals) and Carter Bays (vocals and guitar), as you might know, are the two co-creators of the show!
So download the theme song, head over to their store and pick up some “The Solids” schwag, write them and beg them to put it up on their own site, and thank them for the wonderful work they are doing. (This is my nice “please don’t sue me, I’m trying to help you” plea.)

LOVE this show. For those that can’t figure out how to download it, right click on the link to the page that actually plays the song. Then select “Save target as…”, and save to a folder on your computer. It will save it as an mp3 file.

This is one of my most favorite songs ever. It is literally “awesome”. Neatly played with nice breaks throughout it. It’s also very British-like. The band is totally a “The” band. By the way people, why don’t you just use limewire to download the song?
