Release and reception
Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime was released physically on February 13, 2026. The album consists of rarities, deep cuts, and covers. It also contains one of Beck's many contributions to the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World soundtrack, "Ramona". It is Beck's second compilation after his 2000 B-sides compilation Stray Blues. Writing for The Times, Will Hodgkinson stated that "Beck's goal here seems to evoke a mood of total relaxation conducive to nights of love", he notes that "It's all a long way from the carefree goofball madness of Beck's Nineties heyday but it is also very pretty, rather dreamlike and unquestionably romantic."
