This is beyond amazing. I've been a musician for 16 years and I've personally covered this song a half dozen times over. Playing 2 or 3 guitar parts, the bass line, drums, and performing the vocals, but never once have I managed anything that sounded as beautiful as this. If you don't bleed Alice, then you are quite simply the most gifted pianist I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Thank you for this.

What I see is unreal I've written my own part Eat of the apple so young... I'm crawling back to start.
This is one of my favorite Alice in Chains songs to date. I just happened to come across your cover of Slipknot's "Snuff" two hours ago, and I've been hooked ever since. Every single one of your videos leave me in complete awe and amazement. When I saw that you covered Rotten Apple, I couldn't wait. =) And like the other songs you performed, this one was captured just as beautifully. I can almost see and hear Layne sitting in the same room with his shades on, singing and rocking out. Thank you for sharing these videos and for all the work/talent you put into them.
This was the first album the first song and the first intro I had heard of them i got into grunge the year this album came out and almost by accident it was given to me with others just to make some cassetes back then.. it is perfect. Excellent cover!
One is forever grateful to be alive and experience "vkgoeswild". The neighbors are still listening. At this volume, and not calling the cops, makes them feel the same way?!?!
I absolutely love your Alice In Chains content, please do don’t follow or head creeps!! I also think you’ll do a crazy good job at some mad season(another one of lanynes bands) songs like I’m above, x-ray mind or river of deceit!
My God... I am awestruck and speechless at this very moment. You did something great to my soul with your rendition of this song. I don't know what else to say. I always wanted to hear a piano cover of "Rotten Apple" and you did it possibly the best way anyone could have. This is something people listen to in Heaven.
This is my favorite AIC song ever and I love you so much for how you covered it. Thank you so much for using your awesome talent to spread the love for this.
Thank you for covering this song. You have put a lot of emotion into it and I almost cried hearing it. I have some very fond memories of this song. Amazingly awesome cover! Thank you so much.
Wow. You've done justice to both this song and Layne Staley, better than any cover I've ever heard. This song is has really special place in my heart. It wasn't until I heard it that I truly decided I wanted to be sober, even after having gone to rehab. Thank you so much for this, please don't stop making music.
Wow, that was amazing, I figured out the rythym on the keyboard so I hope this helps with the lead but I dont think I can play it like that . Keep it up
Very, Very Nice! "What I see is unreal .. I've writ-ten my own part .." Great stuff, especially with the jazz-influenced interpretation. Keep up the great work Vika. If you want a donation for your solo exploits please email me.
First I see you do a cover of Flood 2 then Nutshell and now this. Your song choices are always on point. Maybe do an Agalloch, Alcest or Slowdive song?
she plays the guitar solos, holy shit.... im amazed by you, please never stop playing piano.
You're never gonna believe this but.....
The way you catch those little half-missed jazz notes, incredible, well done girl!
wow so beautiful i agree Layne would be proud!!
This puts a tear in my eye. So beautiful. RIP Layne.
?? what happened to Layne?!?
Captures those unforgettable AIC harmonies very well!

Look up Pink Floyd - Breathe piano cover that's a great one. Or Dos Gardenias - BVSC
Only a true Alice In Chains fan could cover this so well. Layne would be so proud. Fantastic job!
Your taste in music is mind blowing! Hearing this on the piano is amazing and so melancholific!!!!

I’ve averaged watching this once a day for months now. I’m totally mesmerized.
