Info for Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime (EP)

A lovingly curated collection of rarities, deep cuts and cover versions by Beck!

Beck is sending us all a very special Valentine’s Day gift in the form of Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime, a beautifully crafted eight-song mini-album collecting some of his most beloved standalone singles and soundtrack contributions, eclectic cover versions and a couple of exclusive previously unreleased recordings.

Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime is of course named for Beck’s version of the Korgis’ dusty gem that first stole hearts on the soundtrack to 2004’s The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and has since remained a frequent fixture of Beck’s live shows, especially his orchestral performances of the last few years. Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love” and the Flamingos’ “I Only Have Eyes for You” receive faithful and reverent renditions, as do tributes to John Lennon (“Love”) and Caetano Veloso ("Michelangelo Antonioni”). The beguiling “Ramona,” from the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World soundtrack, is the sole Beck original here, while never before recordings of two of Beck’s signature reinterpretations — Hank Williams’ “Your Cheatin’ Heart” and Daniel Johnston’s “True Love Will Find You in the End” — round out this formidable Valentine’s Day mixtape.

With Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime, Beck draws together material recorded across different eras and contexts, presenting it as a cohesive statement centred on romantic songcraft. The result functions as both a thematic mixtape and a snapshot of his enduring interest in reinterpretation, tradition and emotional clarity.

Beck David Hansen
is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer, recognized for his experimental and genre-blending style. After gaining widespread recognition with his experimental, lo-fi single ‘Loser’ in 1993, Beck quickly climbed the charts and secured a major label contract with DGC Records. This breakthrough led to the release of his third album, ‘Mellow Gold,’ in 1994, alongside ‘Golden Feelings,’ ‘Stereopathetic Soulmanure,’ and ‘One Foot in the Grave’ that same year. Beck solidified his reputation for genre-blending innovation with the critically acclaimed album ‘Odelay’ in 1996, which produced hit singles such as ‘Where It’s At.’ His work also extended to film, contributing ‘Deadweight’ to the soundtrack of ‘A Life Less Ordinary’ in 1997.

Beck continued to demonstrate his versatility and innovative approach with subsequent releases. He released the country-influenced ‘Mutations’ in 1998, earning him the Best Alternative Music Performance award at the 42nd Grammy Awards in 2000. This was followed by the funk-infused ‘Midnite Vultures’ in 1999. A significant artistic evolution arrived with ‘Sea Change’ in 2002, a melancholic acoustic album that garnered widespread critical acclaim.

Most recently, Beck released ‘Odyssey’ in collaboration with Phoenix in 2023, continuing to push artistic boundaries and engage audiences with new material.

This album contains no booklet.
