The Quantum World – A New Song By Symphony Of Science

In case you missed the news yesterday, Symphony Of Science (@musicalscience) released their 11th song. But that is not all!

They now have their own Bandcamp page! There are a lot of reasons why this is awesome. Aside from making it easier for people to donate, when downloading the tracks, by using the ‘name your price’ model, if you download the bundle, you receive all 11 songs plus an unreleased track and wallpaper.

Something else I have yet to mention, a couple of weeks ago, Symphony of Science released 5 new remixes. You can find them here.

And, as always, you can still go to the Symphony of Science download page to download the songs in a variety of formats, including the videos.

Now, without further ado, the video for The Quantum World featuring: Featuring Morgan Freeman, Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku, Brian Cox, Richard Feynman, and Frank Close. And do not forget to download the track.

Lyrics:

[Morgan Freeman]
So, what are we really made of?
Dig deep inside the atom
and you’ll find tiny particles
Held together by invisible forces

Everything is made up
Of tiny packets of energy
Born in cosmic furnaces

[Frank Close]
The atoms that we’re made of have
Negatively charged electrons
Whirling around a big bulky nucleus

[Michio Kaku]
The Quantum Theory
Offers a very different explanation
Of our world

[Brian Cox]
The universe is made of
Twelve particles of matter
Four forces of nature

That’s a wonderful and significant story

[Richard Feynman]
Suppose that little things
Behaved very differently
Than anything big

Nothing’s really as it seems
It’s so wonderfully different
Than anything big

The world is a dynamic mess
Of jiggling things
It’s hard to believe

[Kaku]
The quantum theory
Is so strange and bizarre
Even Einstein couldn’t get his head around it

[Cox]
In the quantum world
The world of particles
Nothing is certain
It’s a world of probabilities

(refrain)

[Feynman]
It’s very hard to imagine
All the crazy things
That things really are like

Electrons act like waves
No they don’t exactly
They act like particles
No they don’t exactly

[Stephen Hawking]
We need a theory of everything
Which is still just beyond our grasp
We need a theory of everything, perhaps
The ultimate triumph of science

(refrain)

[Feynman]
I gotta stop somewhere
I’ll leave you something to imagine
