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 Prรถfrock, 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 ↴
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name
Here at the Bridge whether rain or fine
We can shine all the time
Home or away, come and see us play
(Ayyy)
Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name
Come to the she'd and we'll welcome you
Wear your blue and see us through
Sing loud and clear until the game is done
Sing Chelsea everyone.
(Ayyy
Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name
Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name
It is important to note that the lyrics above are not from the original "The Christmas Song" written by Mel Tormรฉ, but rather an alternate version by Various Artists. These lyrics are actually from a Chelsea football club chant, a song frequently sung by fans during games to show support for their team.
The lyrics depict the sense of unity that arises among fans and the team when supporting, playing and winning for their beloved Chelsea football club. Blue, the color of the team uniforms, is referenced heavily throughout the song, emphasizing the strong identification fans have with the team. The reference to football as the game shows the importance and passion that fans have for the sport and their team. Winning is the ultimate goal and the unification of fans and players is reinforced through mutual support in good times and in bad, whether it is through the sun or rain.
The repetition of "Chelsea, Chelsea is our name" acts as a rally cry for the team and their fans, reminding them of their shared passion and commitment to the club. The line "Come to the shed and we'll welcome you" also highlights the sense of community and inclusivity within the fanbase, inviting others to share in the excitement and camaraderie around the game and the team.
