The term Various Artists is used in the record industry when numerous singers and musicians collaborate on a song or collection of songs. Most often on Last.fm, compilation album tracks appear under the name of Various Artists erroneously because the individual artist is not listed in the album's ID3 information.
Compilation albums, for example.
Sometimes, single releases may be credited to Various Artists when their profits are going to charity and, usually in high-profile cases, are sometimes known by a group name. Examples include Band Aid with their releases of Do They Know It's Christmas? and USA for Africa with We Are The World.
Various Artists is also an actual performance name for Torsten Pröfrock, who runs the German DIN label. Torsten performs also as Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, Traktor besides some others. He's a good friend of Robert Henke and since the Fall of 2004, he is a member of Monolake.
Various Artists was also a short-lived Bristol punk band formed by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key (originally from Birmingham). Other members were also simultaneously in Art Objects who went on to become The Blue Aeroplanes, the latter the Key brothers also co-wrote some songs and were involved in. When Various Artists imploded, the Key brothers went on to form Either / Or.
Various Artists also appear on tracks from musical theater soundtracks, due to the nature of having many cast members on one song, as well as an ensemble in some cases.

Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! teachers! leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! teachers! leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
"wrong, do it again!"
"if you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. how can you
Have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
"you! yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"
The lyrics of "Another Brick in the Wall" by Pink Floyd talk about the negative effects of institutionalized education and its attempts to control young minds. The song can be seen as a critique of traditional education systems that suppress creativity, individuality, and critical thinking. The repetition of the lines "We don't need no education" and "We don't need no thought control" suggests that the singer desires autonomy and freedom, and that traditional education systems restrict that freedom.
The line "No dark sarcasm in the classroom, teachers leave them kids alone" refers to the idea that some teachers use sarcasm or ridicule to exert control over their students. The phrase "All in all it's just another brick in the wall" implies that each individual is just another brick in the system, reinforcing the theme of conformity and a lack of individuality. The sections where we hear a teacher reprimanding a student for not performing adequately or threatening punishment further underline the oppressive nature of institutionalized education.
In essence, "Another Brick in the Wall" is a powerful critique of the dehumanizing nature of education systems, challenging us to think more deeply about what we want our educational environments to look like. The song encourages students to resist thought control, embrace critical thinking, and ultimately build a more humane, empathetic world.
