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 ↴
In the mornin', when we rise
In the mornin', when we rise
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best
Blue is the colour of the sky-yy
In the mornin', when we rise
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best
Green's the colour of the sparklin' corn
In the mornin', when we rise
In the mornin', when we rise
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best
Mellow is the feelin' that I get
When I see her, m-mmm
When I see her, uh huh
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best
Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinkin', mm huh
Without thinkin', mm huh
Of the time, of the time
When I've been loved
In this song, Various Artists talks about the beautiful colours that make their life beautiful. They start with the yellow colour, which is the colour of their true love's hair. They love the time when they rise in the morning and see their love lying beside them. It's more beautiful when the sun shines on their hair, making it look bright and stunning. The next colour is blue, which is the colour of the sky. The morning time is the best time to appreciate the beautiful blue sky. The sky is so blue that it looks surreal and gives them a sense of calmness and joy.
The third colour they mention is green, which is the colour of the sparkling corn. Green is the colour of nature, and the sparkling corn signifies growth and abundance. The morning is the best time to appreciate nature and look at the beauty that surrounds us. Lastly, they mention the mellow feeling they get when they see their love. When they see their love, everything feels peaceful and beautiful. This is the time they love the most.
Towards the end of the song, they mention freedom, a word that they rarely use without thinking about the time when they've been loved. The love they have received gives them a sense of freedom, and they can be themselves without fear. This song is about appreciating the moments that matter the most to us, the simple things that make our life beautiful.

Lyrics
Bitch ça fait très très longtemps que j'y pense à comment se mettre bien moi j'ai pas ton élan
N'écoute jamais les on dit ceux qui jactent n'ont pas vu la vie au travers de ton monde
J'ai beau parler dans leur langue mais faut croire qu'ils n'entendent que le langage de la violence
J'me faufile en bal sans les mains tu m'as pas vu bégayer quand il fallait passer le lent
Sankara Cheikh Anta négro j'ai choisi mes modèles c'est fiable comme un moteur allemand
En indé sans carats sans chico et je fait quecro bien plus que les grands de tes grands
J'les tema pas ils sont pas concentrés
J'attends pas la passe ils peuvent pas centrer
J'suis bantu me parles pas de basané
On est pas venu ici pour se pavaner
Remballe ta c j'ai mes cc
J'tourne la poignée je froisse le temps
J'roule comme si quelqu'un m'attends
Et je cale le pétard entre mes dents
Bah ouais
J'sors la bécane et j'fume la beuh
J'men bat les couilles si c'est dangereux sa mère
J'vois que des barreaux de barreaux en fer
La bécane crie et j'sors de l'enfer sur un gros fer
J'sors la bécane et j'fume la beuh
J'men bat les couilles si c'est dangereux sa mère
J'vois que des barreaux de barreaux en fer
La bécane crie et j'sors de l'enfer sur un gros fer
L'akra aide à focaliser
La haine que je ressens dans mes pensées
Dans ce business balisé
chant
J'sors la bécane et j'fume la beuh
J'men bat les couilles si c'est dangereux sa mère
J'vois que des barreaux de barreaux en fer

J'men bat les couilles si c'est dangereux sa mère
J'vois que des barreaux de barreaux en fer
La bécane crie et j'sors de l'enfer sur un gros fer

You know a song is good when the melody, the beat, the voice, the vibe pierce thru your soul without even knowing the lyrics.

The glaze is absolutely insane, y’all really be doing tricks on it. Songs good but “it pierced my soul” is nuts.
