Song at the end of How I Met Your Mother season 8 episode 24 – 2013 Finale

Didn’t you love the song at the end of the HIMYM season 8 finale? It was uplifting and…well, how could you not smile as you saw the face of THE MOTHER?

“Something New” — As the gang prepares to head out to Robin and Barney’s wedding, Ted (Josh Radnor) invites Lily (Alyson Hannigan) to see the house he’s finally finished fixing up, on the eighth season finale cliffhanger of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, Monday, May 13 (8:00-8:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

In How I Met Your Mother season 8, episode 24, we had a great song. The finale gave us “Simple Song” by the Shins. And when did it play? It played when “Girl with the Yellow Umbrella” appeared and got a train ticket to Farhampton.

We know she’s the Mother.

Ted’s future wife.

It’s pretty exciting.

Cristin Milioti is the actress who plays her.

And this song, and her beautiful face, makes HIMYM fans very hopeful for season 9.

The Shins “Simple Song” Lyrics

Well, this is just a simple song,
To say what you done.
I told you ’bout all those fears,
And away they did run.
You sure must be strong,
And you feel like an ocean
being warmed by the sun.

When I was just nine years old,
I swear that I dreamt,
Your face on a football field,
And a kiss that I kept,
Under my vest.
Apart from everything,
But the heart in my chest.
