Is she that old?  I thought she was early 30s. She looks mighty fine for her age. |

Yep she certainly is. At the rate she's going she'll be the finest looking OAP in history.  |

Bloody hell! So she was old even when they started out (by rock/pop standards anyway)!

She had been with other bands dating back to the mid-80s, but it was only when she was spotted by Butch Vig on 120 Minutes in 1994 that she became famous, and personally I can't be thankful enough for that. |

So she was 28/29 when she had her first hit.
Actually Tori Amos was 28 when Little Earthquakes became big so it's the right age to hit the big time.
