Top Musical Moments from How I Met Your Mother

In case you haven't figured it out, I am a huge fan of How I Met Your Mother.  It's a show that fits my life and thus, I like watching it.  The cast is multi-talented.  Many of them can sing, dance, and act.  This lead to some fantastic moments on the show.  Today, I want to point you towards what I think are the best musical moments of the series.

Pa pa pa pa, pa pa pa pa... pa pa, da da da da, da da da da da...

Season 2, Episode 9:  Slap Bet - This is the first episode that we learn about Robin Sparkles and the music video is 100% 80's approved.


Season 3, Episode 9:  Slapsgiving - Many people don't realize that Jason and Neil are huge musical talents and this song proves it. 



Season 3:, Episode 16: Sandcastles in the Sand - The second Robin Sparkles video is late 80's/Early 90's perfection.



Season 4, Episode 11: Little Minnesota - As a writer of alternate lyrics, I appreciate this short segment more than most.



Season 4, Episode 13: Three Days of Snow - You really need to watch this episode to get the emotional impact behind this musical bit.



Season 4, Episode 14: The Possimpible - Stick with the video.  The song is obviously the reason this is included.



Season 5, Episode 4: The Sexless Innkeeper - Technically not a song or musical moment, but the poem is hilarious.



Season 5, Episode 12: Girls Vs. Suits - The 100th episode celebrated the musical talents of NPH and showcases the talents of the rest of the cast.  Even Alyson Hannigan, who does not sing, sings a bit here.  Add choreography from a Glee alum and this is one of the greatest musical numbers ever aired.



Season 5, Episode 17: Of Course - A short one that makes me giggle in "bang bang", but "Super Date" is also fantastic.



Season 6, Episode 9: Glitter - The funniest of the Robin Sparkles series includes great talent in the late Alan Thicke.



Season 8, Episode 15: P.S. I Love You - The 90's Robin Sparkles, AKA Robin Daggers is every bit Alanis Morissette as you can get.



Season 8, Episode 20: The Time Travelers - This is one of my favorite moments in the series.  The harmonies are real!



Season 9, Episode 16: How Your Mother Met Me - In one of the best season 9 episodes, you get the most hauntingly beautiful rendition of La Vie En Rose.

  1. Ah, no Murder Train? That one's hilarious. Also, I can't hear her version of La Vie En Rose without getting a little choked up.

    1. No. I avoided soundtrack stuff and listed specifically musical moments that showcase the cast.
