Ein deutsches Album (English:A German Album), released in July 1980, is a German language version of Peter Gabriel. Gabriel overdubbed German vocals on top of the existing instrumental and backing vocal tracks. The German lyrics are translations from the English. Two years later, Gabriel released Deutsches Album (1982), a significantly altered version of his fourth album Peter Gabriel (1982) (Security in North America). In February 1980 German language versions of "Games Without Frontiers" and "Here Comes the Flood" were released as a single in Germany.

Famous quotes containing the word german:
“The German intellect wants the French sprightliness, the fine practical understanding of the English, and the American adventure; but it has a certain probity, which never rests in a superficial performance, but asks steadily, To what end? A German public asks for a controlling sincerity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
