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 ↴
pensando en tu belleza loco voy a parar
el insomnio es mi castigo tu amor sera mi alivio
y hasta que no seas mia no vivire en pas.
Hoy conoci tu novio, pequeño y no buen mozo
y se que el no te quiere por su forma de hablar
ademas tu no lo amas porque el no da la talla
no sabe complacerte como lo haria yo
por eso no hay motivos para yo respetar
No, no es amor, lo que tu sientes se llama obsesion
una ilusion en tu pensamiento
que te hace hacer cosas asi funciona el corazon.
Bien vestido ayer en mi Lexus pase por tu colegio
en forma en que te fuiste como un loco te fui a alcanzar
te busque y no te encontraba y eso me preocupaba
para calmar mi ansia yo te queria llamar
pero no tenia tu numero y tu amiga ya me lo nego
ser bonito mucho me ayudo eso me trajo la solucion
yo se que le gustaba y le di una mirada
con par de palabritas tu numero me dio
del celular llamaba y tu no contestabas
luego te puse un beeper y no habia coneccion.
Mi unica esperanza es que oigas mis palabras.
No puedo tengo novio.
No me engañes por favor.
No, no es amor, lo que tu sientes se llama obsesion
una ilusion en tu pensamiento
que te hace hacer cosas asi funciona el corazon.
Hice cita para el psiquiatra a ver si me ayudaba
pues ya no tengo amigos por solo hablar de ti
lo que quiero es hablarte para intentar besarte
sera posible que de una obsesion yo pueda morir.
Y quizas pienses que soy tonto
bribon y tambien loco
pero es que en el amor soy muy original
no enamoro como otros conquisto a mi modo
amar es mi talento te voy a enamorar
disculpa si te ofendo pero es que soy honesto
con lujo de detalles escucha mi version
pura crema de chocolate juntarte y devorarte
llevarte a otro mundo en tu mente corazon
ven vive una aventura hagamos mil locuras
voy a hacerte caricias que no se han inventa'o.
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
No es amor, no es amor es un obsesion
The lyrics of Various Artist's song Obsession portrays the story of a man who is deeply in love with a woman, to the point where he cannot sleep without thinking about her. He confesses his love to her and mentions that he knows her boyfriend is not good enough for her, and that he can love and satisfy her more than her boyfriend ever could. The man's obsession with her drives him to the point where he visits her school to try and catch a glimpse of her and even seeks psychiatric help to deal with his obsession. Despite being rejected by the woman because she is committed, the man continues to pursue her with his love and affection.
The lyrics of the song reflect the feelings and emotions of someone who is deeply in love and is unable to control their feelings. It reveals the vulnerability and desperation of a person who will do anything for the person they love, even if it means risking rejection and humiliation. The song also highlights the theme of obsession and how it can consume a person's life, leading to irrational and impulsive behavior.
