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.

Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
underneath the stars
are letters in my heart
saying maybe it's true
that baby you
will turn to baby blue
falling just like "oooh"
Take it slow
feel it in our bones
and by the end we'll know
that we were never dreaming
In good time
the white inside our eyes
will turn to baby blue
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
With nothing more to say
These words will never change
For you for you I will stay
Can't you see?
You're the one who sees
me for who I am
Will you be the answer?
All this time
trying to make you mine
falling just like "oooh"
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
With nothing more to say
These words will never change
For you for you I will stay
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
With nothing more to say
These words will never change
For you for you I will stay
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
