With talk of How I Met Your Mother Season 9 already making fans giddy, producer Craig Thomas gave viewers another reason to be excited at the Television Critics Association press tour yesterday:

He's planning to release a series soundtrack titled, naturally, "How I Met Your Music."

"We've been asked by the fans for years, 'When is a soundtrack going to come out?'" Thomas said. "We've never been able to make it happen. Finally, we decided, 'Look, it could be the last year of the show, we don't know if there could be more. This is the time to do it.' We compiled everything. It's 20 tracks, 40 minutes of music. On premiere night, the soundtrack is going to go up on iTunes."

That would be Monday, September 24. Mark your calendars!

Thomas added that the final song list is not yet complete, but you can expect a complete version of the theme song, along with every Robin Sparkles single, "Nothing Suits Me Like a Suit" and the Puzzles theme song.
