Emily? Why, I've always assumed Emily Bronte. It helps to remember that
"Lionheart" came out just a few months after "The Kick Inside" and the
massively successful "Wuthering Heights." Thus, I think no DIRECT
signficance to the song "Wow" except for the fact that Kate does double
back references to her other works on occasion (Reference the "Just being
alive" lines on "The Red Shoes" lp).
