Steam is water in the gas phase, which is formed when water boils. Steam is invisible; however, "steam" often refers to wet steam, the visible mist or aerosol of water droplets formed as this water vapor condenses. At lower pressures, such as in the upper atmosphere or at the top of high mountains, water boils at a lower temperature than the nominal 100 °C (212 °F) at standard temperature and pressure. If heated further it becomes superheated steam.
The enthalpy of vaporization is the energy required to turn water into the gaseous form when it increases in volume by 1,700 times at standard temperature and pressure; this change in volume can be converted into mechanical work by steam engines such as reciprocating piston type engines and steam turbines, which are a sub-group of steam engines. Piston type steam engines played a central role to the Industrial Revolution and modern steam turbines are used to generate more than 80% of the world's electricity. If liquid water comes in contact with a very hot surface or depressurizes quickly below its vapor pressure, it can create a steam explosion. Steam explosions have been responsible for many foundry accidents, and may also have been responsible for much of the damage to the plant in the Chernobyl disaster.
Peter Brian Gabriel (born 13 February 1950) is an English singer-songwriter, musician and humanitarian activist who rose to fame as the original lead singer and flautist of the progressive rock band Genesis. After leaving Genesis in 1975, Gabriel went on to a successful solo career, with "Solsbury Hill" his first single. His 1986 album, So, is his most commercially successful, and is certified triple platinum in the UK and five times platinum in the U.S. The album's biggest hit, "Sledgehammer", won a record nine MTV Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards, and it remains the most played music video in the history of MTV.
Gabriel has been a champion of world music for much of his career. He co-founded the WOMAD festival in 1982. He has continued to focus on producing and promoting world music through his Real World Records label. He has also pioneered digital distribution methods for music, co-founding OD2, one of the first online music download services. Gabriel has been involved in numerous humanitarian efforts. In 1980, he released the anti-apartheid single "Biko". He has participated in several human rights benefit concerts, including Amnesty International's Human Rights Now! tour in 1988, and co-founded the WITNESS human rights organisation in 1992. Gabriel developed The Elders with Richard Branson, which was launched by Nelson Mandela in 2007.

Oh, steam
You know it's steam
It's now been 15 days
Since you've been steamed at me
And I don't want
Your frustration and your madness
pushed and blamed on me
Cause you're crazy for the day
And you're crazy for the night
And what the hell, you've been crazy for your life
And I don't want people thinking
I'm not treating you right
It's the Nature of it
Steam
When you're saying those things
That you don't really mean
You can blame it on the rain
You can blame it on the heat
It's the nature of it
Steam
I have my morals
And I have decent respect
For our relationship
I'm hope that you are doing all your best
Well I'm not so great
But I'm better in other ways
You can't see it but I'm trying anyway
It's the nature of the game
That's what I claim
It's the nature of it
Steam
When you're saying those things
That you don't really mean
You can blame it on the rain
You can blame it on the heat
It's the nature of it
Steam
It's the nature of it
Steam
When you're saying those things
That you don't really mean
You can blame it on the rain
You can blame it on the heat
It's the nature of it
Steam
You seem to put it all by me
The sky, your health, your dreams
And your beliefs
And I seem to protect and respect everything
Too naturally
Steam
You know it's steam
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh (steam)
More days, more days
I'm steamed in every way
I said no way, no way
I'm steamed in every way
You can blame it on the rain
You can blame it on the heat
It's the nature of it
Steam
It's the nature of it
Steam
When you're saying those things
That you don't really mean
You can blame it on the rain
You can blame it on the heat
It's the nature of it
Steam
More days, more days
I'm steamed in every way
I said no way, no way
I'm steamed in every way
I said more days, more days
I'm steamed in every way
I said no way, no way
