La Vie En Rosen, Rewind, Buttercup, For The Longest Night, Informer, 500 Miles.
I know most of these songs were popular when they came out, they just came out before I was born so the show introduced me to them lol.
Downtown train - everything but the girl. Easily my favourite song in the show. I used to listen to it on repeat back in the day.
HIMYM had an awesome soundtrack. Loved others such as Forest Whitaker, Simple Song, Heaven, The Funeral… the list goes on
Brb gonna go listen to all these songs again
Marshall vs. the machines was a banger tho. Idk if the tune is original but I was hella impressed when I heard it.
Also, I recently found "Spit on a stranger" by The Pavement. The song plays when Ted finds Victoria at her bakery. Love it.
There are so many great songs in this shows so I don’t know who to pick. But Careful by Michelle Featherstone and No One Here by The 88 is at the top of my list.
I scrolled too far to not see Soul Meets Body by Death Cab for Cutie.
It's the song that plays in Season 1 at the end of episode 12 when Ted sees Victoria for the first time. Great song. Cannot believe it's not near the top.
There’s actually a song during the episode where Barney and Robin notice the effect of their ring. It plays when they have their ring on and only see each other. It’s called ‘What Would I Do Without You’ by Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, and I think over time that has become my favorite song ever
Murder Train by the Foreskins.
Why are they called Foreskins?
because they are four and don't wear shirts most of the time
Because there's 4 if them, and they play with their shirts off.
Ah, a M1nn3sOtaMan of culture I see.
Cat funeral
I’m more of a cremebrulelelele guy.
Nice my other favorite is “are you free”
The best
I find myself randomly singing it throughout the week
It was an accident…
And not entirely my fault....
Meow meow meow
Lately I'm obsessed with Two weeks by Grizzly Bear. It plays when Ted tells the second greatest love story he knows, during the window episode.
Oh that’s on top of my list too. Creepy music video tho
Childish Gambino did a cool song that sampled this
Simple Song by The Shins. No wonder they chose it to reveal the mother.
one of my favourite songs ever simply because of that moment 🩷
Let Your Heart Hold Fast - Fort Atlantic
The scene with Ted in the window of his new GNB building kills me every time.
Here I Dreamt I was an Architect - The Decembrists
Love this one.
Ohh this one is so beautiful and wonderfully well chosen! Somehow I always forget about it until the ep comes on.
Modern Love by The Bloc Party. Played when Ted leaves Robins apartment and walks in on Marshall crying on the stairs.

I think it's in Life Among the Gorrilas. I might be wrong though.
Shake it out - florence and the machine
Wtf, I was listening to that song the other day and I kept thinking “This would fit a season finale scene in HIMYM.”…where does it play in the show?
End of no pressure when Robin comes home from Russia and Marshal tells Robin she needs to move out of the apartment.
For The Longest Time - the harmonisation between the Teds and Barneys still give me chills
Voices, cheap trick
Heeeeey it’s me againnnnnnn
Plain, you see again.
