Émily took to her self-titled second album becoming involved in the style and writing some songs.[6] The result is a disc a bit more daring, resolutely focused on the textures of 1980s. The first single off of the album was ‘Laissez-moi danser’ originally performed by Dalida. Émily recalls her mother listening to the song when cleaning with her mother on the weekends. The song was the first to become a video from the album. The second radio single for ‘Émily was’ Adrénaline.’ The third single, and second video for the album was for the song ‘Au Grand Jour’ which made a splash due to its provocative nature regarding sexuality of those of the same sex. n 2004, Emily took part in more than 100 performances of Cabaret playing the role of Frenchy and continued on the traveling tour of Quebec in 2005.
