10 Best Musical Numbers In How I Met Your Mother
8. The Beaver Song
Away from the cheesier songs in How I Met Your Mother, this entry moves back towards the show’s tendency for dirty humour and double entendre – all wrapped up in a song which Robin swears is a nice anthem about friendship.
Premiering in Season 6, this musical entry explores yet more of Robin’s past as well as the less well-respected career choices of Robin Sparkles through her appearance on Space Teens. As a pop star, we discover that Robin also had a brief career as an actress, much to the gang's amusement as it was a classic badly-written children's TV show, typical of the era.
This song is clever by being simultaneously rather filthy while not being overly overt about why, giving the grown-ups a bit of a tickle while protecting the innocent ears of any children who might happen to be watching. How I Met Your Mother Does this very well, and the song, while short, is extremely catchy - just make sure not to sing it in public or people might get the wrong idea.
