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.
I Don't Know Why
Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To step out of my comfort zone
Whenever I try
I am afraid to just let go
Don't know why I run
Don't know why I hide
Never let them know
What I feel inside
Don't know why I'm scared
Just to take a chance
While I'm just standing here
I've never been one
To break free
'Cause I've always cared
What everyone thinks of me
Don't know why I run
Don't know why I hide
Never let them know
What I feel inside
Don't know why I'm scared
Just to take a chance
While I'm just standing here
Like a bird
Free to fly
Spread my wings and fly my life
Like a bird
Up so high out of the cage
It's my time to shine
Like a bird
I'm free to fly
So tell me (tell me)
Why don't I

🇺🇸 We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no
🇨🇴 No se habla de Bruno
Mas, justo en mi boda fue
En nuestra boda fue
Todo estaba listo con un clima precioso esa vez
Ninguna nube esa vez
🇫🇷 Bruno survint avec un rire malin
Orage...
À moi de le dire à Mirabel
Continue, mi vida, pardon
🇭🇺 Szememben ő borút lát
Jött a nagy botrány!
Az agyam csakis ezen járt.
Fekete esernyős vad tánc
🇲🇾 Taufan terhuyung-huyung
Hari yang indah namun sudah
Usah ungkit hal Bruno, no, no, no
🇩🇪 Nur kein Wort über Bruno
Hey! Immer hatt’ ich Angst vor Brunos Rascheln oder Stolpern
Hinter jeder Wand hört’ ich ihn tuscheln oder poltern
🇬🇷 Σαν κινούμενη άμμος η χροιά του αν το σκεφτείς, τς τς τς (San kinoúmeni ámmos i chroiá tou an to skefteís, ts ts ts)
Χαρισματικός μα τρελαίνει κόσμο (Charismatikós me trelaínei kósmo)
Η οικογένειά μας ζούσε άπειρο φόβο (I oikogéneiá mas zoúse ápiro fóvo)
🇵🇱 Jego przepowiedni nie rozumiał nikt, bo jak?
Wiesz już co i jak
Wysoki jak dąb, śliskim szczurom brat
🇳🇴 Når han snakker sløyt går du helt i sort
Alt han tolker slik det ender med skrik, nei...
🇰🇷 입에 담지 마 브루노, 노, 노, 노 (ib-e damji ma beuluno, no, no, no)
입에 담지 마 브루노 (ib-e damji ma beuluno)
내 물고기 죽는다던 그다음 날, 꽥! (nae mulgogi jugneundadeon geuda-eum nal, kkwaeg!)
🇩🇰 Nej, Nej
Han sagde: "Du vil få en vom"
Og det har jeg fået
Nej, nej
Se her, han sagde: "Dit hår er væk en dag"
Der' intet tilbage
Nej, nej
🇷🇺 Его пророчества ловят тебя в сеть! (Yego prorochestva lovyat tebya v setʹ!)
Он сказал мне, что жизнь, как в мечте, (On skazal mne, chto zhiznʹ, kak v mechte,)
Получу я без всяких преград (Poluchu ya bez vsyakikh pregrad.)
🇻🇳 Ông ta nhắc tôi phép màu rồi sẽ có đầy nụ gai và khiến tôi bất ngờ
Oye, Mariano đến đây rồi
Ông ta từng nhìn thấy tôi yêu một người
🇧🇬 Ще е близо до мен, но влюбен в друга (Shte e blizo do men, no vlyuben v druga)
Дори го чувам cera (Dori go chuvam sega)
Хей виж (Hey vizh)
🇮🇹 Se vuoi dire altro, non puoi
Lo sento ancora, lo sai?
Come fosse qui
Um, Bruno, se ripenso a Bruno
🇵🇹 Eu quero saber tudo sobre o Bruno
Conta-me toda a verdade sobre o Bruno
Isabella, o teu amor chegou
Vamos comer
🇳🇱 Het was haar huwelijks dag / Hij zei mij dat mijn droom op een dag ooit / Vroeger was ik bang als ik hem door het huis zag strompelen / En als hij je riep dan schrok je terug / Alles was al klaar en aan de hemel geen wolkje te zien / Nergens een wolkje te zien
🇹🇼 他還說我的力量會增長 像葡萄藤上茁壯 / 各位馬利亞諾要來了 / 他偷偷告訴我 夢想的人他遙不可及 接著離開我 (tā hái shuō wǒ de lì liàng huì zēng zhǎng xiàng pú táo téng shàng zhuó zhuàng / gè wèi mǎ lì yà nuò yào lái le / tā tōu tōu gào sù wǒ mèng xiǎng de rén tā yáo bù kě jí jiē zhe lí kāi wǒ)
🇯🇵 背中にはネズミたち / もう私の夢が叶う日など / 闇の中へ連れ去られる / 来ないかもねだけど / 君の叫び待ち侘びてる / いいの
(Senaka ni wa nezumi tachi Mō watashi no yume ga kanau hi nado / Yami no naka e tsuresarareru / Konai kamo he dakedo / Kimi no sakebi machiwabiteru / īno)
🇧🇷 Quando for dormir, vai te consumir /já começa a escurecer/ foi a perfeição / estou bem, estou bem, estou bem
Não fale do Bruno
🇹🇭 ทำไมฉันต้องพูดเรื่องบรูโน่ (Tam-mai chăn dtông pôot rêuuang Bruno)
พูดไม่ได้เลยเรื่องบรูโน่ (Pôot mâi dâai loiie rêuuang Bruno)
นี่ฉันไม่น่าถามเรื่องบรูโน่ (Nêe chăn mâi nâa tăam rêuuang Bruno)
There's probably something wrong because I don't speak all these languages and they sing fast in the last part

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no
0:21 Latin Spanish
No talking about Bruno
But
Right on my wedding day
(On our wedding day)
Everything was ready, with a splendid weather this time
(Not a cloud at this time)
0:34 France French
Bruno arrived with a malignant laugh
(Thunderstorm!)
Up to me to tell Mirabel (the story)!
(Continue mi vida, pardon)
0:44 Hungarian
He sees dark clouds in your eyes
(There was a huge scandal)
I keep rattling my brain on this
(A calendar filled with dismal events)
0:53 Malay
The typhoon made us swaying
(What a beautiful day but it is enough)
Do not bring up the stories about Bruno, no, no, no
1:03 German
Just no word about, Bruno
Hey! Was always scared of Bruno's rustling and tripping
Behind every wall, I heard him whispering and rumbling
1:12 Greek
If you think about it, his voice quality sounds like quicksand
Tch, tch, tch
Gifted, but he can drive people crazy
Our family used to live in fear
1:21 Polish
Nobody understands his visions, how could they?
Do you know now how come?
Tall as an oak tree
A brother of slippery rats
1:30 Norwegian
When he talks slowly,
You fade to black
All he interprets,
It ends with clamour
1:40 (South) Korean
Don't put it in your mouth about Bruno, no, no, no
(Don't put it in your mouth about Bruno, noooo...)
Don't put it in your mouth about Bruno
(Don't put it in your mouth about Bruno)
He told me my fish would die, that next day, quack!
1:53 Danish
No, no
He said: "You'll get a pot belly", and so I have
No, no
Look here, he said: "Your hair will be gone one day", there's nothing left
No, no
2:03 Russian
His prophecies are catching you in a net!
He told me that the life like in a dream I would get, without any obstacles
2:17 Vietnamese
He told me that my magic will surprise me as it brims with buds and thorns
Oye, Mariano is here
He once visioned me loving someone,
2:30 Bulgarian
Will be close to me, but in love with another!
I even hear him now (Hey, look!)
2:39 Italian
Isabela: If you have anything else to say, you may not
Dolores: (I can still hear him, you know)
Dolores: As though he were here!
Um, Bruno...
If I think back on Bruno
2:49 Portugal Portuguese
I want to know everything about Bruno
Tell me the whole truth about Bruno!
Isabella, your love has come
Let’s eat!
2:59 Netherlandic Dutch
Pepa: It was my wedding day
Felix: It was her wedding day
Pepa: Everything was ready, and not a cloud in sight
Felix: Not a single cloud in sight
Dolores: Hey, when I was younger I used to be afraid seeing him stumble around the house
I used to hear him just kind of mumbling and muttering all the time
I associate him with the sound of falling sand, tch, tch, tch
Camilo: A rather grimy type, rats on his back
And whenever he called you out, you'd get startled
Isabela: He told me that one day my dream would be, fulfilled by someone with courage
3:08 Mandarin Taiwanese
Pepa: Bruno walked in frivolous and slowly
Felix: Thunder!
Pepa: Are you going to tell (the story) or let me do it?
Felix: Oh sorry, of course not me
Dolores: He had such a terrible gift
It's fate that even Abuela can't do anything about it
He speaks of prophecies they will never understand
Who understands this prophecy?
Camilo: He sneaks into your dreams, to rouse you up
Isabela: He also said the strength will grow like a grape on the vine, ???
Abuela: Everybody Mariano will arrive soon
3:18 Japanese
Pepa: "It's going to rain soon"
Felix: That was what Bruno said
Pepa: He said it's going to rain soon
Felix: Everyone got out their umbrellas
Dolores: He told me that the man of my dreams would always be loving someone else, ???????
Camilo: Rats on his back
You're being taken into the darkness
Isabela: He told me the dreams of my life would come true, it's fine
3:27 Brazilian Portuguese
Pepa: It's starting to get dark
Felix: It was a perfection...
Camilo: When you go to sleep, he will devour you
Dolores: I'm fine, I'm fine, really fine! (not sure)
Isabela: I'm fine, I'm fine, really fine!
All: Don't talk about Bruno, no
3:34 Thai
Mirabel: Why did I talk about Bruno?
All: You can't talk about Bruno!
Mirabel: I should not have asked about Bruno!

I'm pretty sure each main cast member knows fluent Spanish so they might have done the Spanish as well.
