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 lyrics of "Side By Side" by R&B singer R&B singer Ariana Grande is all about love, intimacy, and spending quality time with one's partner. The song starts with an invitation to "lay back and ride" to the "shit from the old school" as the artist looks forward to coming home after a long day's work to share a "home-cooked food" dinner for two with his partner. The focus is on the pleasures that come with intimacy and the importance of making time for one's loved ones. The artist promises to make his partner feel good and appreciated, offering to give her a massage, a hot bubble bath, and reminding her that tonight is all about her.
Other artists who have sung the song include New Kids on the Block, who released their version in 2017. Their rendition stays true to the original song's lyrics while adding some refreshing beats.
Another group, Electric Light Orchestra, released a song titled "Side By Side" in 2019. The band's version is a tribute to band member Roy Wood.
Overall, "Side By Side" is a tribute to love and the great moments partners share together. It highlights the importance of intimacy and spending quality time together.
