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.
Transformation
Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(I know now that I must use... myself)
(... as the subject to the experiment)
I must be wise
I must try to analyze
Each change in me
Everything I see
How will it be?
Like a warning light
Glimmering in red
Like crimson bloodshed
Shimmering in red
Beautiful and strange
See the colors change before my eyes
See how they dance and they sparkle
Like diamonds at night
Leading me out of the darkness and into the light
(11: 58 pm)
(I've consumed ten centiliters of formula HJ-7)
(Salty, bitter taste, stings the tongue)
(Warm in the gullet)
(Heat spreading strongly through my veins)
(Slight... feeling of euphoria, lightheadedness)
(No noticeable behavioral differences)
(laughing)
Now the die is cast
Nothing left to do
Time alone can prove my theories true
Show the world
(My god, what is this?)
(Something is happening)
(I can't explain)
Something inside me, a breathtaking pain
Devours and consumes me and drives me insane
Suddenly, uncontrolled
Something is taking hold
Suddenly, agony!
Filling me, Killing me
Suddenly, out of breath
What is this? Is this death?
Suddenly, look at me
Can it be?
Who is this creature that I see?
Free!
(laughing)
The lyrics of "Transformation" by Various Artists tell the story of a person who performs an experiment on themselves. The singer acknowledges that they need to be wise and analyze each change in themselves and their surroundings. They question how they will view the world differently and see everything in a new light. The lyrics portray the transformation as something beautiful, strange, and unlike anything they have experienced before.
The lyrics then describe the consumption of a formula, which causes a feeling of euphoria, but no noticeable changes in behavior. However, the experiment takes a sudden turn as the singer begins to experience a breathtaking pain that devours and consumes them, driving them insane. The lyrics describe the transformation as sudden and uncontrollable, filling the singer with agony and taking breaths away. Eventually, the change leads to a feeling of freedom and a realization of a new self.
This song is often interpreted as a metaphor for personal growth and transformation. The singer is willing to take risks and experiment on themselves to understand and improve themselves. The pain and temporary insanity are portrayed as necessary steps to reaching the ultimate goal of self-discovery and freedom.
