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.
Yeah!
Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You hit the ground with every force, it makes no sense or sound
God bless your soul girl
Now you got the whole world
I'm on my way now
I'll get there somehow
Have you ever seen the light?
I will live, then I will die
I will keep you on my mind
It's your eyes that make me smile, oh yeah oh yeah
Wasting time, hanging out, oh yeah oh yeah
These teenage years, no they don't last, oh yeah oh yeah
These teenage lips, they speak too fast, oh yeah oh yeah
I see the light that's shining from your eyes, blinding me
It's like I'm walking down your street again at seventeen
God bless your soul girl
They got the whole world
I'm on my way now
I'll get there somehow
Have you ever seen the light?
Don't you wonder where I hide?
I will live, then I will die
I will keep you on my mind
It's your eyes that make me smile, oh yeah oh yeah
Wasting time, hanging out, oh yeah oh yeah
These teenage years, no they don't last, oh yeah oh yeah
These teenage years, no they don't last, oh yeah oh yeah
The lyrics to "Yeah!" by various artists seem to be about a person who is in love with someone who doesn't reciprocate those feelings. They mention how every time the person they love comes around, they end up going away again. They describe watching this person fall and hit the ground, feeling as if there's no sound or reason behind it. Despite these painful interactions, they express that they still care for this person and wish them well.
The lyrics also reflect on the fleeting nature of teenage years, specifically noting that these moments won't last forever. The singer seems to recognize the importance of their feelings in the present, but also acknowledges that things will eventually change. They describe being so entranced by the person they love that it feels like they're blinded by their shine. The lyrics end with a repeated line about keeping this person on their mind, as if they can't let go of their feelings.
Overall, "Yeah!" seems to be a song about young love and infatuation. Despite the bittersweet moments mentioned in the lyrics, there's a sense of optimism and hopefulness about the situation. The lyrics express the idea that although things might not work out, they can still hold onto their emotions and memories of this time in their lives.
