10 Best Musical Numbers In How I Met Your Mother

Now this might be a controversial pick, but any fans of grunge will totally get it. Similar to Murder Train, this song adds a level of diversity to the music within How I Met Your Mother, as a slightly less represented genre is explored.

Launched in the episode of the same name, this song completely subverts expectations of what a new Robin Sparkles song would sound like. The persona of Robin Daggers adds a darker element to the character’s music career and helps us to understand why she stopped making music. As far as the genre goes, this truly gets across the angst and the need to give a big middle finger to society, made humorous as the only reason she's doing it is to impress a man. It is well produced and has a typical grunge-style music video which only adds to the fun.

This entry encapsulates grunge perfectly, both mocking it and paying homage to it simultaneously.
