Not sure whether you are serious, but perhaps you need to check the temperature setting on your water heater. It is only supposed to produce hot water not steam!

Does it still make that noise if you temporarily remove the shower head ?

Sounds like harmonics from one of the taps, or a restriction (water saver crap?) in the shower head.

Check head first, and then hot/cold water alone.

A possible restriction in the shower head. Remove and clean and try. Or possible air entering the line somewhere.

I would use a urethane sealant. Second choice would probably be silicone.
