Oh hell yes.
To say that I love Robin Sparkles is kind of an understatement. Why don't you watch her hit single, "Let's Go to the Mall"? Go on, I'll wait.
Don't want to watch it? THAT'S OKAY, I'VE GOT PICSPAMS.
So, Robin Sparkles is the Canadian teen pop star alter ego of Robin Scherbatsky. Despite the many, many things I love about How I Met Your Mother- and my overwhelming apathy towards Robin-normal-Robin- Robin Sparkles is my absolute favorite joke ever. Just imagine finding out a friend of yours has a hidden past wherein they were a popstar. IN CANADA! This is something I would never let a friend of mine live down (or, say, the president of the Twelve Colonies) - and the group on HIMYM doesn't really either (Marshall sings Let's Go to the Mall for Karaoke in that Canadian bar he finds for Robin, it's Ted's cell phone ring at one point.) It is something entirely magical and wonderful.
But no, she didn't just sing Let's Go to the Mall. It turns out, there was more glory waiting for us- and that wonder is "Sandcastles in the Sand."
I actually love "Sandcastles in the Sand" a lot more than "Let's Go to the Mall," because the lyrics are just... ten times more amazing. "I'm ready, let's do it!" and "I'm on the pill now!" are two of my favorite lines of anything EVER. It was the greatest week and a half of her life!
Those two videos are just magic. HIMYM has tantalized me (and, presumably its other viewers) by mentioning a variety show Robin did in Canada during the whole Robin Sparkles year of awesome pop domination and I can't wait to get more. Robin Sparkles tickles my fancy, indeed.
