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.

My Dream
Various Artists Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

끝이 없는 길을
나 홀로 걸어간다
저기 멀리 보이는 빛이
나를 오라 부른다

돌아서 갈 수 없는
지나간 기억들이
흩어진 조각들 사이로

내 안에 숨겨둔
내일의 나의 꿈을
혼자 간직했던 꿈을 찾아 걸어간다

바람에 안길래
저 멀리 나를 데려가
끝없는 길을
헤매인데도 괜찮아
나의 길을 간다

두 눈을 감아보니
그대는 내 품 안에
눈 뜨면 사라질지 몰라
내 가슴 가득히
붙들어 두려는 나를
다가갈 수 없는 나를 그대 잡아 줘요

사랑에 안길래
바람아 나를 데려가

숨소리까지 느낄 수 있어 그대여
나의 길을 간다
