How I Met Your Mother Music

One of the things that makes How I Met Your Mother so great is the music. The songs featured in each episode feature a good mix of genres, recognizable music, and underground indie bands, makes up one of the best soundtracks for any sitcom on television.

This page has all the music (or at least all that I can identify) broken out by episode. Any songs that haven’t been identified will be listed. If you see a hole, drop me an email so we can make this list as complete as possible. This page wouldn’t be possible without the help of Mike Jonas and the other members of the IMDB How I Met Your Mother forum.

Thank you for investing you time in putting this info up. I was wondering there was a song that played on Season 1 Episode 5 right before Marshal did his solo do you know the name of that song ? It was a club beat, sounded like a heavy bass beats.

JD | February 18, 2008 @ 3:18 pm

Chetan,

I don’t think there was any notable music in the 2nd and 3rd episodes. If you point out specific scenes, I can look into it.

Also, I recommend downloading the songs from iTunes music store. I plan to make some iMixes in the future for everyone’s convenience.

hasan | February 23, 2008 @ 2:07 am

JD | February 25, 2008 @ 10:59 am

Hasan,

You have to tell me if you’re looking for the song from the original airing or if you’re going off of the DVD. The music, especially for that episode, is different on the DVD.

WesTech | February 27, 2008 @ 9:48 pm

Does anyone know what song is playing in the background of the Wesleyan reunion in How I met everyone else?

Sean | March 6, 2008 @ 6:36 pm

JD, I do not know if I am speaking on Hasan’s behalf, but on the DVD version of “Okay Awesome,” there is a really good dance song playing right when they enter the club for the first time. I have been searching for it for quite some time, and I do not believe it is listed in the credits. Thanks for the help.

Xavi | March 16, 2008 @ 5:51 am

What about the song that plays in 1×21 (Milk), while Robin is crying in the wedding?

This song starts in the furgo that Robin drives.

Diane Hirsch | April 1, 2008 @ 12:51 pm

What theme was played during the end of Episode 13 (3/31) while Barney was typing. It’s very familiar; it sounds like a theme from an 80’s sitcom and it’s driving me crazy that I can’t think of the name. Can you please help??

Thanks!

JD | April 1, 2008 @ 1:03 pm

It’s the theme from Doogie Howser, obviously! Neil Patrick Harris has come a long way.

George | April 10, 2008 @ 3:23 pm

Can people find me the music from “the bracket” the music when you see Lily’s scrapbook. And the music while Barney writes his blog. Thanks

Payel | April 11, 2008 @ 4:27 am

The song which is played while showing Lily’s scrapbook is “one shining moment”, that is actually anthem of college basketball. I don’t know who is the singer. You can see the full lyrics of the song in ,

http://www.oneshiningmoment.com/lyrics/

The whole scene of Barney’s writing his blog is actually copied from an old series named “Doogie Howser, MD” starring Neil Patrick Harris as Doogie. The music is also from the same series.

Ronak | April 12, 2008 @ 4:16 am

I need help with a song. It’s playing in season 3, episode 5 “How I Met Everyone Else”. It’s in the scene when Ted talks about how he first met Marshall while Marshall was “eating a sandwich”. It sounds like an 80’s song to me.

Nick | April 13, 2008 @ 4:59 am

okay…so I love the song at the beginning of the “Columns” episode on the DVD…it is definitely not Ben Lee’s “Whatever It Is” and I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me where to listen to the whole song

Payel | April 13, 2008 @ 5:38 am

I think it is “whatever it is” by Ben Lee only.

Check this out-

weemix | April 16, 2008 @ 8:57 am

On season 2 episode 11 (How Lily Stole Christmas) , there is a musical score playing when Ted visits Lily’s rented apartment. Anyone know the name of the score? Thanks in advance

Mustafa | April 23, 2008 @ 4:09 am

In the last episode “the sandcastle in the sand” episode 16, there is an awesome song playd when Lily and her old friend from college starts to dance in the bar a little bit before the end.

Does anyone by any chance know who made that song or what it’s called?

Dznygal | April 23, 2008 @ 10:15 am

The song playing on the jukebox in episode 16 is Daisy Dukes by the 69 Boyz.

Mustafa | April 23, 2008 @ 10:37 am

Thanks man for the song name.
Really appreciate it.

Yours // Mustafa

Dznygal | April 23, 2008 @ 10:53 am

One other note on the jukebox song episode 16 - I could only find 69 boyz lyrics, but couldn’t find album. I’m not sure if 69 boyz did a remake, but the original and great song is by Duice and it’s called Dazzey Dukes. You can download it off of Napster or several other sites.

Mustafa | April 23, 2008 @ 10:59 am

Ye man, the song I downloaded was from 69 boys and sounded a little different from the one in the episode.
I should check this Dazzey Dukes song a bit too.

Once again, appreciate it.

//Mustafa

Oh, I know where I heard it from. Anyone watch the Totally Rad Show?

It’s the interstitial music for the TV section.

Also, it’s probably like, totally free to use. Great way to save money, though it is no “Heaven”.

john darc | August 6, 2008 @ 3:08 am

shit, they even cut out the Shaggarats’ “Linus and Lucy” from Slutty Pumpkin. Now it’s some generic song playing in the background.

That song totally goes with the episode. It’s Halloween, goddamnit!

john darc | August 7, 2008 @ 6:21 pm

Hmm, I guess that trance song from “Okay Awesome” must be cheap. They’re playing it again as the gang arrives at Prom in “best Prom Ever”

John | August 9, 2008 @ 1:07 pm

What’s the song in Episode 2 (Purple Giraffe) just before Ted goes up onto the roof to talk with Robin? During this song, the video comprises of Ted looking at the window, and also the purple giraffe that the young boy tried to take (which Robin reported earlier in the show). Cheers.

Clemmi | August 27, 2008 @ 1:22 pm

Hi!

Pia | September 6, 2008 @ 5:26 am

hi, what’s the song in season 3 episode 19 when Lily is exhibiting her painting in the art show?

thanks

Firas | September 7, 2008 @ 5:53 pm

Hello I would like to know which song is being played in 1×02 Purple Giraffe, it’s being played in the end of the episode

Firas | September 9, 2008 @ 4:42 pm

The same song is being played in background almost in all the bar scenes too

Super Mario | September 9, 2008 @ 11:22 pm

I’m with Pia from above…i gotta know who did that song when lily was selling her art at the gallery in Everything Must Go (Episode 319)

gary | September 11, 2008 @ 12:05 am

Pia & Super Mario

If I remember correctly, the song from Lily’s show at the art gallery (season 3, episode 19) is “The Painter” by I’m From Barcelona. A pretty simple song, lyrically, but very catchy.

Peter | September 12, 2008 @ 9:50 pm

In Season 1, episode 18, “nothing good happens after 2 am”, there is a song playing when Ted is at Robin’s house at 2:30 am, and just as Ted is about to leave, Ted and Robin hug eachother, and then end up making out. There is a song playing when they hug. No vocals, just a guitar.

If you would like to listen to it, you can google video HIMYM S01E18.

Thanks for any help.

nika | September 16, 2008 @ 12:10 am

the song playing during the scene with marshal eating a sandwich when he first meets Ted and thinks he is the Dean in episode 49 –”How I Met Everyone Else” — was “I am a scientist” by Guided by Voices.

ptwithy | September 18, 2008 @ 7:57 am

Looking for the song at the opening of Season 3, Episode 13, where Ted talks about meeting Stella. It’s a solo blues guitar. Tried to pick it up with Shazam, but the voice-over confuses it.

I’m watching the iTunes version, which I assume is the same as the DVD version.

Blake | September 22, 2008 @ 12:36 am

Hey whats the song that Marshall dances to in the DVD version of Okay Awesome? Cuz the Lovefreekz one is different to whats one the DVD…

Emilio | October 5, 2008 @ 5:38 pm

I would love to know what the music is which is being played in the background of the bar scenes, most notable in the episode 1×02 the purple giraffe, at the very end when Robin introduces the random girl to Ted. Is it composed just for that purpose or is it an actual song?

Randy | October 7, 2008 @ 12:13 am

Does anybody know the song from tonights episode that was playing while Stella was sitting on her steps after telling Ted she didn’t care where he lived? Thanks

Payel | October 7, 2008 @ 2:50 pm

Reuben | October 19, 2008 @ 3:40 am

Which is the song playing in the bar near the end of the show in the intervention episode, 404. i tried but wasnt able to figure out the lyrics to search on the internet…

Payel | October 19, 2008 @ 7:06 am

That’s easy. It’s “coming home” by ‘the 88′

Pam | October 19, 2008 @ 11:03 am

The slow song that Robin plays in “Pilot” is “I want to be ready” by Kool Blues, not Otis Redding “Cigarettes and coffee”.

Safi | October 20, 2008 @ 9:33 pm

Can anyone tell me the song from the episode “Shelter Island” (Season 4, Episode 5)? It was playing near the end of the episode. TIA

Blaine | October 21, 2008 @ 12:44 am

Benji Hughes - Waiting For An Invitation is the song at the end of Shelter Island

Zac | October 21, 2008 @ 10:33 pm

Pam-

“Cigarettes & Coffee” actually was played on that episode…but only on the television broadcast. For some reason, they changed it on the DVD. That happened to a lot of the songs like “Soul Meets Body,” “Spit on a Stranger,” and “Off the Record”

reuben | October 21, 2008 @ 11:09 pm

again asking about the intervention episode last week. it’ll be great if any me you could tell me the song playing in the background when ted says that they did meet next year and drank the most expensive scotch.

foll | October 22, 2008 @ 4:43 am

Hey

I´m searching the song in the newest episode (S4E05) played during the trips to the island.

“baa, babaun, ba, ba, babaun” etc.

thanks

Payel | October 22, 2008 @ 5:36 pm

@reuben

I heard it again and though it sounds different in the beginning, but after Wendy took the pictures its definitely “coming home” by The 88.

roland | October 27, 2008 @ 5:02 am

I’m listening to “Off the record” by My Morning Jacket on loop right now…what a brilliant song and direct allusion to the secrets that weren’t shared on Game Night…this show couldn’t get any better =)

Lindsay | October 27, 2008 @ 9:47 pm

What is the name of the song in the episode where they refer to eachother’s “revertigo” when Lily and her old College friend dance play off the jukebox? It’s an old 90’s rap song, starting with “Come on Baby…”? It’s driving me crazy!!

Thanks!

cardboard | October 28, 2008 @ 12:01 am

it goes:

JustinDickinson | January 24, 2009 @ 11:34 pm

Bryant | January 28, 2009 @ 1:13 am

I'm looking for the song in Season 1 Episode 5: Okay Awesome that plays when Marshell is asking Barney for aspirin. I'm also still looking for the song playing at the end of season 4 episode 1 when Barney is talking to the waitress about Robin. These songs are difficult to find. I'm guessing they might be created just specifically for the show

Chloe | January 28, 2009 @ 5:19 am

"No More Wishing" by Hayley Taylor.

Andy | January 28, 2009 @ 11:33 am

Jon | January 29, 2009 @ 4:39 am

There is no way season 1 episode 16 has Where is my mind by the pixies st the end. I love that song and whatever is playing is not it.

rheo | February 1, 2009 @ 4:50 am

That song is actually performed by the Solids, the show's creators, who also do the theme song. It's aclled "You Don't Know What You've Begun"

rheo | February 1, 2009 @ 4:52 am

It is a beautiful song, I just cant remember what it is called..

Help… I need song help.
I've been watching the season one DVD and the song that I assume replaced the "laundry shop" song in the DVD version of the episode "The Wedding" is stuck in my head. None of the lists of music for HIMYM include the DVD replacement tracks. It's right where Robin gets the call to achor and extends into the wedding with Marshall and Lilly Dancing. Can anybody name that tune?

stanky leg | April 26, 2009 @ 7:12 am

Very nice information. Thanks for this. I stopped to say that your blog is very well written .. Lovely information!

Stefan | April 26, 2009 @ 10:24 pm

Mark | May 5, 2009 @ 1:15 am

The song playing when Ted walks in on Marshall with a "sandwich" Season 3 Episode 5 (#49) is "I am a Scientist" by Guided by Voices. "Glad Girls" by GBV was the final song played on the 5/4/09 episode.

chappa | May 5, 2009 @ 2:12 am

i really wish they didn't replace ted and victoria's dance with classical piano. the song was PERFECT!

lildaredevil | May 5, 2009 @ 11:56 am
