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.

The song "Love in This Club" by Usher featuring Jeezy is a sultry R&B track about a man's desire to make love to a woman in a club setting. The lyrics describe the singer's attraction to the woman, as he encourages her to leave her friends and spend time with him. He promises to satisfy her every desire and keep the good times going all night long. Throughout the song, the singer makes repeated references to making love in the club while drawing attention to the physical attraction between himself and the woman.
The lyrics are provocative and showcase a high level of sexual energy, highlighting the raw connection and chemistry felt between two people in a club atmosphere. The song's beat, produced by Polow da Don, is catchy and upbeat, adding to the sensual vibe of the song.
The song was a massive commercial success upon its release in 2008, debuting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and remaining in the top ten for multiple weeks. It also reached number one on the R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, becoming Usher's 11th chart-topping hit on that list. The song's music video, directed by The Brothers Strause, features Usher performing at a club, with Jeezy and a group of dancers making appearances throughout.
