    Enjoy The Stream's fifth studio album on beautiful vinyl. The music on this album is part of the multidisciplinary show Nature Calls. Combining music, theatre and science, this is a special show, created at the kind request of Prof. Dr. Ir. S.J. van der Molen and Prof. Dr. I. van Vulpen for the Leiden European City of Science year. The music is inspired by famous scientific formulas, which can be found as Wall Formulas, in Leiden, Utrecht and many cities to come.

    Twelve well crafted pop songs. Chamber pop which occasionally rises to orchestral dimensions. The Stream's distinctive sound is a combination of unique piano, vocal harmonies, a storytelling lead vocal, a lock tight rhythm section, and now and then a lyric synth.

lyrics

For every state you’ve been
We all felt isolation
The many, the few, the near and the far

And what we’ve seen
is just a lack of observation
Including the nature of what we are

You simply can’t deny there’s always interaction
Even when it’s small

One look at each other
Two seconds to be
To find one another
Shut your eyes and you’ll see
Sometimes I get a little excited
It's just a phase, don’t have to hide it, it’s cool

So many words, so many rules and regulations
Sometimes you just want out

Out of this place, with all its pressure and frustration
You feel the need to shout

You simply can’t deny the space you need to feel good
Even when it’s small

One look at each other
Two seconds to be
To find one another
Shut your eyes and you’ll see
Sometimes I get a little excited
It's just a phase, don’t have to hide it, it’s cool

One look at each other
Two seconds to be
To find one another
Shut your eyes and you’ll see
Sometimes you get a little excited, sometimes there’s no notion at all
Sometimes we get a little excited
Just a phase, don’t have to hide it, it’s cool
