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 "Stairway to Heaven" by Various Artists express a deep longing and yearning for someone who is perhaps no longer with the singer or is out of their reach. The verses describe the singer's loneliness and isolation, as they search for a way to connect with the person they miss. The "stairway to heaven" may be a metaphor for a means of reaching the one they long for, but the journey is also fraught with uncertainty and doubt. The singer knows that love can be fleeting or even painful, but they cannot help but continue to desire the person they miss.
The chorus repeats the simple phrase "bogoshipda," which translates to "I miss you" in English. The repetition of this phrase reinforces the intensity of the singer's emotions and longing. The bridge suggests that the singer has experienced heartbreak in the past, but they are still willing to take risks and pursue love, even though they know that it may result in further pain.

This is why we should always pay tribute to people when they´re still alive. The joy and the emotion on their faces are priceless.

You’re right. Tell people now you revere them, adore them, love them, and are thankful for them.

Just in case those unfamiliar with Led Zeppelin are unaware, their Drummer sadly passed away some time ago, his son is playing the drums here. His signature hat was a bowler hat, thus the bowler hats in the choir. Very very classy tribute.

Jason Bonham, son of the late John Henry "Bonzo" Bonham, shares a fateful coincidence with another son of another drummer. Ringo Starr's eldest Zak had been recruited by Oasis to be their concert drummer before Liam and Noel had their full-blown split. Zak played with Oasis and was also present with other sons of the Beatles when they eventually did a benefit concert covering their fathers' music. Jason Bonham eventually joined Oasis at some point when Zak had left or I could be confusing my timelines as to who joined Oasis first. Both sons of drummers became truly skilled drummers themselves.

The sight of those hats on entire choir cracked Robert for sure!

If I remember correctly, Jason later told Howard Stern that his presence was a surprise to the band, hence the shocked and excited reaction when they saw him!!
