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.

I’m an armchair traveller. I doubt I will ever get to the Louvre but love Art and culture and so this was a wonderful experience. I did not know that such grandeur and magnificence still existed! It is overwhelming even at one step removed. Thank you so much for this wonderful video. At least I have seen a few pieces it holds. What I found most interesting was the context and history you gave on each piece you discussed. You’ve inspired me to explore more and look for other videos on the Art in the Louvre as well as other art galleries.

When we were in the Louvre the weather was very hot! I'm not sure if the museum has air conditioning or not, but it sure didn't feel like it inside. The air was hot & stifling and the crowds were terrible. Good luck seeing the Mona Lisa, there is an ever present mob of people surrounding it all trying to get a glimpse. I was able to squeeze through to about 20 feet away, raise my camera and take a quick photo. They need to have a line on a conveyor at the Mona Lisa so that everyone can see it. I was there in 2014, so maybe that has changed?

Good list. I'd add to it the Tribal and Aboriginal Art wing which includes art from Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. Absolutely phenomenal. Just try to keep from wondering which pieces are stolen. Another good rule to follow at the Louvre which has so much, Is it another brown thing like the last three brown things? Get to the next area. (Of course I'm talking about the huge tapestries dyed with plant dyes long since faded.) And in any art gallery or museum it's fine to just walk quickly through whole sections - but if something catches your eye - Stop! (I have years of experience with art and artists, and have an art history background. Art should make you take notice.) I've spent a total of about 3 minutes with the Mona Lisa in two visits to the Louvre, but 20 meters away there's an amazing Rembrandt I spent 45 minutes with completely by myself (while Ms ML had a packed room). Would you make a little effort to meet a real person who's been dead for 350 years?

@chrisreynolds3351

I must be a philistine. I cannot see the mystical beauty in the Mona Lisa. Nor do I think the style and methodology of the applied paint is in keeping with Da Vinci´s incredible works. No wonder, up to his death this (what I consider to be a student´s work) painting was kept in his bedroom. Out of sight! But I am overwhelmed by the exhibits and paintings in the Louvre and would recommend anyone, whatever your level of art interest, to spend a day inside this beautiful building. It will truly add something positive into your psyche and sense of wonder.

With the glass pyramid, they made the Louvre a masonic symbol. And is not as special as they keep saying it is: is just a cover for the ticket counters, from one side, and a disturbing nuisance for the palace facade on the other side. I really don't detect any genius at work there. For me, Pei was inferior to the Notre Dame gargoyle's anonim sculptors. Simple as that!

@evelynzlon9492

Masonic is an understatement. The Mona Lisa is the image of the Beast from the Sea discussed in the last chapter of the Bible. The glass pyramid has the power to imbue life into this image of the Beast that it may both speak, and put to death all those who refuse to worship what it represents. It's rumored that the pyramid is comprised of 666 panes of glass. It was originally 673 but during construction the corner and apex panes were fused together for stability reducing the pane count to 666. (Some "panes" are now 3 dimensional but there are exactly 666 individual pieces of glass.)

And people, men especially, seem to have a peculiar fascination with having the Mona Lisa in their personal possession. First Da Vinci carried her with him everywhere he went. He no doubt kept her in his bedroom because she had sentimental value which explains why the technical quality of this painting is of secondary importance. And then a Louvre employee stole her and hid her in his home for 2 years. The motives for these 2 Mona Lisa possessions differed, but any way you cut it those are 2 different people who went above and beyond to keep the Mona Lisa by their side.

I saw the Mona Lisa at the Smithsonian museum in Washington, DC and it's a small dark painting. I saw this when I was a teenager, and I wondered to myself why it's a big deal. Other paintings are absolutely brilliant with colors and the use of light making them shining stars.
