# Rated PG (Peter Gabriel album)

Rated PG is a compilation album of songs for film soundtracks by English rock musician Peter Gabriel. The track selection spans over 30 years of music created for the individual films, with "Walk Through the Fire" from 1984 being the earliest and "Everybird" from 2017 being the most recent.

## Content

The album includes many unreleased tracks, some of which are alternate versions of previously released songs. The previously unreleased songs in any form outside of their respective films are "Everybird", "Speak (Bol)", and "Nocturnal".

## Release

Originally only released on limited-edition vinyl on Record Store Day (13 April 2019) through Real World, it eventually became available on digital streaming services later that month to accommodate demand. A digital single, "This is Party Man", was released before the album. It is a new version of the song and features new lyrics from Peter Gabriel. A video for "Everybird" was released on 12 July 2019 featuring footage from the animated film for which it was originally created. In May 2020 it was announced that the album will be made available for general release on vinyl and CD on 12 June 2020.
