About

Lionheart is the second album by the British singer Kate Bush. It was released in late 1978, just nine months after Bush's successful debut album The Kick Inside. Lionheart reached no.6 on the UK album chart (her only album not to make the top 5) and has been certified Platinum by the BPI. The first single taken from the album, "Hammer Horror", missed the UK Top 40. However, the follow-up single, "Wow", was released on the back of Bush's UK tour and became a UK Top 20 hit. The song (and its video) became the target of parodies by impressionist Faith Brown, and comedienne Pamela Stephenson (on the British TV programme Not the Nine O'Clock News).
