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 Need a Dollar
Various Artists Lyrics
I don't need to be a musician
In fact, I don't need music at all
Really?
Stop looking at me like that, keyboard! You know I'm right!
What would you do instead?
Maybe I'll be a baker, or a candlestick maker
Maybe I'll be a potter, or a teacher like "Welcome Back, Kotter"
Maybe I'll juggle or maybe I'll juice
Be a Top Gun and be friends with Goose
One thing I know for sure
I don't need music I don't need you anymore
I don't need music I'm gonna kick you right out the door
I don't need music anymore!
Ah! Why don't you take the hint and leave me alone?!
In fact, I don't need music at all
Really?
Stop looking at me like that, keyboard! You know I'm right!
What would you do instead?
Maybe I'll be a baker, or a candlestick maker
Maybe I'll be a potter, or a teacher like "Welcome Back, Kotter"
Maybe I'll juggle or maybe I'll juice
Be a Top Gun and be friends with Goose
I don't need music I don't need you anymore
I don't need music I'm gonna kick you right out the door
I don't need music anymore!
Ah! Why don't you take the hint and leave me alone?!

Fading in:
I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me
Bad times are comin and I reap what I don't sow
hey hey
Well let me tell you somthin all that glitters ain't gold
hey hey
It's been a long old trouble long old troublesome road
And I'm looking for somebody come and help me carry this load
I had a job but the boss man let me go
He said
I'm sorry but I won't be needing your help no more
I said
Please mister boss man I need this job more than you know
But he gave me my last paycheck and he sent me on out the door
I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
He said
I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Hey hey
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
He said
And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(Hey hey)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(He said)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(Hey hey)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(He said)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(Hey hey)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(He said)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(Hey hey)
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside
(He said)
I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Hey hey
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Hey hey
And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me
Your mom of mayhem just a child has got his own
(Hey Hey)
if god has plans for me I hope it ain't - written in stone
(Hey Hey)
because I've been working working myself down to the bone
and I swear on grandpas grave I'll be paid when I come home
(Hey Hey)
come on share your dollar with me
share your dollar with me (7x)
come on share your dollar with me
(Outro)
