Going To California - Led Zeppelin cover feat. Jesse Smith 

Good evening everyone!! In today's video I'm honored to collaborate with Jesse Smith, an outstanding musician from England! I had a great time producing this cover with him and we really hope you like it! Please go and subscribe to him! All links in description!

That was perfection. It took me to a peaceful place away from the turmoil we now battle with. You to have to make more music together. The blend is sublime! Wonderful, thanks!

I think Led Zeppelin would be very proud of this.

Nice :) Really glad Sina pointed me your way :)

Always been my favorite Led Zeppelin song, and they absolutely nailed it!

My favorite Led Zeppelin song, done to perfection!

Absolute perfection. Waiting for the battle of evermore ❤

I notice that Chiara is playing a Harley Benton mandolin from the world famous German music store Thomann. I didn't realize she herself was German, as there's no trace of an accent. Voice of an angel 😇

Whooaa! I'm in a heap in the corner...speechless after listening/watching this. Behold the beauty of this. There's but only one thing to do...listen just one more time...maybe twice...maybe.

Simply perfect! What a wonderful performance! Thanks Sina to introduce Chiara to me...

Wow damn they captured the magic of this song superbly.

Wunderschöne Ballade von LedZep, eine meiner absoluten Lieblingsbands! Hier in beeindruckender Weise von Chiara und Jesse gecovert! Episch und kolossal. Chiara und Jesse haben diesen traumhaften Song in ihrer eigenen Interpretation geschaffen, aber immer das Original 'im Ohr' behalten! Die himmlische Stimme von Chiara, gepaart mit Jesse's markanter Stimme ergeben hier eine hinreißende Symbiose! Man wird direkt eingehüllt in eine warme Decke aus Musik! Danke Chiara, danke Jesse! Meine Hochachtung und eine virtuelle Verbeugung für euch! 👏🙏 Beautiful ballad by LedZep, one of my absolute favourite bands! Here covered in an impressive way by Chiara and Jesse! Epic and colossal. Chiara and Jesse created this wonderful song in their own interpretation, but always kept the original 'in their ears'! The heavenly voice of Chiara, paired with Jesse's distinctive voice make for an adorable symbiosis! You are directly wrapped in a warm blanket of music! Thanks Chiara, thanks Jesse! My respect and a virtual bow for you two! 👏🙏

I love it...hair on my arms stood up😍

I just discovered your channel, and after hearing some of your LZ covers, I thought... she should do Going To California! And here we are. 😆 About 30 yrs. ago took a motorcycle on a road trip from Portland, OR, to San Francisco, CA, and back. I had this song practically on continuous loop. On a Discman, man! 😊 Fond memories. 😁 Great playin' & singin' all around here!👏

Keep coming back to this. Absolutely love it ❤️

you should have 17 MILLION views, not 17thousand! Outstanding you guys give me hope that this generation will not let our Baby Boomer music die.

Wow. So incredible. Brought tears to my eyes.

This music is one of the best of all time and this cover is so beautiful.

This is an absolutely beautiful cover of an old favourite, Chiara. You both made an outstanding performance and I love the arrangement! It is very close to the original but with enough difference to be very much your own. And darn right I'm going to check out Jesse's channel.

Unbelievably good collab / cover! Fantastic vocals from you both and the guitar / mandolin sounds awesome too. This turned out perfect, loved it!!

Capturing all the melancholy of the original. Songs like this, make everything better. 🙏

Very touchy and sensible version of this tune - perfect job!!!!!

Awesome collaboration with JESSE and you both have done a phenomenal job on this amazing song!!!!! I absolutely enjoyed your version immensely!!!!!😻👌

this is a declaration of love for the song

Great song by Zeppelin. WOW that was amazing.

OMG love this 🧡 - awesome vocals (both you and Jesse) and you are playing the mandolin too! This is a great recording of Going to California! 😁🎵🎸

very beautiful arrangements, singing and musicianshipbig like62

Simply incredible! PHENOMENAL!!!🎸🎤🎸🎤

Oh guys!You both are amazing))) Sounds wonderful 🤗🤗🤗 Wish you both only success! Happy to be new friend here ✨

Good job guys ! This is so beautiful !

Chiara, All of your cover of LZ are just Outstanding. I see there are thousands of other people that agree.

Chiara, this is really great !!!

VERY well done!!

Haunting, captivating song from a distant time. Beautifully done. I appreciate the precision of the duets.

Just awesome - well done! I've been listening to and loving that song for 50 years. You folks nailed it beautifully. 10/10 😊🤘❤

Wow! That was definitely an amazing collaboration to my old ears. The harmonies are ridiculous. Well done to both of you.👍👍🇨🇦

this is real love for a song

You could release an album of covers....these are actually incredible....

It gets no better than this. Just outstanding!

Like everything you do Chiara, this was top notch. I absolutely loved it. I am looking forward to seeing your new stuff. Kudos to him too. This is one of my favorite Zeppelin songs, largely because of JPJ’s performance on the mandolin, and you just recreated it perfectly. You always satisfy! Awesome!👏 👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💕

This is some of my best 4 minutes and 23 seconds. I enjoyed every second of it. Subbed right away

You did something I would never support you doing. You covered Paige & Plant from a time when their musical/magical powers were peaking. Like so, so, so many others I should be laying a “We Tried” wreath upon a memorial but that won’t be necessary. Wow, did you bowl me over! You deserve ever syllable of every accolade you’re receiving. May this grand success, achieved on your very own artistic/musical terms, kickoff and carry you to new heights. Congratulations on your skill and bravery! Chris in NJ

Beautiful performance. I really enjoyed it. 😊😊

Gotta Love the Girl

Your voice is angelic

Excellent rendition of this song.

That was an amazing job guys. Love it.

Just seeing this for the first time. My favorite LZ and that was near perfection! 👏👏👏

wow you two, that was really good, beautiful ballad sung by two outstanding artists, thank you for that! 🤘🤩

What a great version of this! The male/female voices and harmonies works so well on this song. Chiara, I didn't know you played mandolin, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. You're such a natural musician. And seemingly able to play any instrument you like! I'm so pleased to have found you on You Tube - thanks Sina!

Impossible to not get all over chills. Head to toe. Their voices! They blend magnificently🎤🎻

Wunderschön 👍😊

Oh my, what a beautiful rendition of this masterpiece of music.

OUTSTANDING🔥👍❤️🇨🇦

Ms Kilchling and Mr Smith , you have taken a classic and made magic, you two are beyond talented and words to describe it. Bless you both

Oh…………..my…………….days………………I am shocked, that was exceptional, thank you so much for sharing. I loved it.

Très très très joli et bien joué ! a suivre ...

Please please please make this available on Apple Music!!! Absolutely one of my favorites!!

Very tastefully done. Taking a classic LZ song and retaining the original flavor, yet remaining bold enough to add your own interpretation. Keep up the great work!!!

Ooh, so good!

That was great! Beautiful harmonies!! Best cover of that song I've heard!!

Love this 😍😍.. glad i found ur channel

This is a superb cover!! Absolutely Beautiful!!!

This was amazing! Congrats 😊

Amazing interpretation, congratulations.

Well that was unexpectedly killer, 🎉❤

Gorgeous! The vocals are haunting (in the best way).

You picked a Good one and The Both of you did a Fantastic Job. Thank You and Have a Wonderful Weekend : )

Amazing cover. Such great playing and stunning vocals. Well done to you both.

Ein ziemlich berühmter Mensch prägte einst den Satz: Comparison kills joy. And that is why I don't want to compare this cover with the original. Each of them are rocking my soul. But you two did a awesome job. This version is outstanding. It's your own version of this song. But you walked not so far away from the original, it's vibes still visible in your song. I love this kind of covering. Jesse this is the first time, I listen to you. I like what you did. I will visit your channel for some more exploration. 😏Thanks for sharing this collab with us. Chiara, Dein Poster an der Wand trifft es auf den Punkt. Du berührst mit Deiner Musik die Seele. 👍👍🙂

So beautiful..... I went to California 30 years ago, this song is my life story.

Beautiful 🙏🏻

Beautiful!! Love it!!

Outta the park, Kids!!! 😎

Excellent!

Love!

you blended your voices so well and the production was really good, mandolin, guitar perfect. Top stuff

Great cover!

Les gens qui aiment Led Zeppelin ne peuvent- être que de bonnes personnes. Bravo !

Unglaublich gute Arbeit 👍

Powerful❤

Thank you both. A great collaboration !

Again, flawless, mesmerizing and beautiful! Fought tears to my eyes…

Enjoyed 🙂🙂🙂

Plus émouvant encore que l'original! BRAVO! 🤗🤩

Fantastici👏👏👏

Bel capolavoro. Bravissimi!

Good morning Chiara. I have been a Sina fan for a couple of years now and every so often, mixed in with her tremendous classic rock performances, she introduces us to other incredible musicians. You are one of those. Your voice is mesmerising and in this piece, I'm now re-listening to it for the fourth time and still smiling. Your contribution in Landslide, currently near the top of my favourites list, was superb. Love your string work too. Absolutely perfect. Please be well and I anticipate more Sina duets.

You two own this song now.

Chiara I love this cover !!!! You and Jesse are truly amazing!!! Thank you so much for this video!!!!

I just emailed myself the link to this. To remind myself to share it tomorrow. My subject line? “Rediscover Led Zeppelin”. Or, a bit like Disturbed introduced surely many tens if not now hundreds of millions of people to the iconic “Sound of Silence”, your rendition of this Led Zeppelin classic may well ultimately have a similar effect. And that’s all surely an understatement, to put it lightly! Well done and Thank You!

Oh dear, after Joni ,Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin .....my Golden years. Thanks !!!!

This is a masterpiece!.

Really really good. 🇬🇧

WOW !!!

Wow amazing 😮❤

Wonderful rendition of this song. Love the mandolin.

Your Kashmir video crossed my feed today. I am blown away. I would travel to see you play a show. Solo. Phenomenal talent sista! 🌻

To the both of you that was so amazing and beautiful!! And I loved the black and white video.
