- My favorite Carolina Crown opening hits! You may not agree with my choices, so let me know your favorites in the comments! If enough people comment, I will make a users choice video!
I love the timing of the Rach Star heckler who yells “PLAY SOMETHING” right before what will damn near be the biggest opening hit he’ll ever hear💀💀
that rach star hit always gets me chills
satan's pretty cool “play something”
I’m pretty sure that even non-Carolina fans would even say that relentless was one of the best if not THE best hit they’ve ever done or any corps has done for that matter (I edited my mistake so carl the grammar police can sleep at night now)
Tyler Barfield fr
corps.. not corp. it's not a corporation.
carl it’s a typo dude. It happens to the best of us
Gabriel Everett nope still relentless, beneath is 2nd to me somehow still
Babylon bro
If you have the audience standing up at the start of the show, you're doing something right.
Anyone else hear a guy yell "play something" during Rach Star
Anyone wondering, I know I'm late, but It's at 3:24
@@cason3705 😂😂😂 I just heard it
Oh yeah. It’s famous now as Crown proceeded to melt the poor man’s face off with a massive wall of sound.
@3:24 Yep.
That man is now dead, the whiplash from the impact snapped his neck
2019 had a badass hit to start it right off, but 2016 put some damn hair on my chest. And 2011 is iconic for that impeccable timing with the announcement.
2011 and 2015 were very similar in that manner and I love it
2019 is my favorite dci opener of all time
How many times have you seen a corps get a standing ovation from the opening brass hit (2011 Rach Star)? Amazing!!!
1. 2016 "Relentless"
2. 2015 "Inferno"
3. 2011 "Rach Star"
4. 2008 "Finis"
5. 2013 "e=mc^2"
Finis feels like it should be higher but the ones above it are just that good.
Switch finis and inferno and that's mine
Finis is my all time favorite Crown opener. One of my favorite shows as well.
We just finished our marching season and we had Finis as our opener. The reactions we got were unforgettable
Mine
1. Relentless
2. Rach Star
3. E= mc2
4. Beneath The Surface
5. Inferno
3:45 C H I L L S... hoping to be apart of this some day
My phone vibrates because of that
The Rachstar opener is just epic on so many levels, incredible
This entire list is the reason why Crown is my favorite DCI band. They are absolutely outstanding and always have a great show
I agree with these. The chord changes at the end of the "It Is" intro gives me chills. Every. Time.
The opening to "E" is one of the finest openers in DCI history. That crowd gave me chills and goosebumps when it let out it's breathtaking roar of an applause👏🏾👌🏾✊🏾😍👑 #BrilliantShow #StandingOvation
Tyler Thompson it’s their championship show. For any Crown fan it will always be special. Plus the visual added to the massiveness of that hit.
Rach Star - OMFG!!! An unamplified corps SQUASHES an amplified PA voice... Forget dropping the hammer...lol. I had to wait out the final opener, and you didn't disappoint...Such an aweinspiring opening, and the finish to it is nothing short of spectacular. I'm just beginning to watch, as I'm having a hard time moving away from IT IS...but these openers will now give me four other starting points.
There wasn't hardly even a hit in OOTW. Relentless has the loudest and most powerful hit Carolina Crown has ever done (more so than Rachstar, which was incredible).
Sammy2Watkins While the Relentless hit is louder, I loved the technical aspect of OOTW, Relentless would be number 6 for me...
I got to hear the relentless hit live (even if it was from about the 20 yard line...) in the georgia dome and it was insane. One of their best shows overall, no doubt.
I was on the side one 35 yard line which was the center of their form. My ears were ringing after the first note. Also in the Dome
2008 was by far the most powerful hit
I definitely would have put Relentless first, Rach Star second, then inferno, For The Common Good, and E=MC^2
Laying in my bed FREAKING OUT at these hits like this is just insane
I had never heard of DCI before 2015 and 'Inferno' was the show that made me fall in love with the activity.
I haven’t touched a trumpet in 15 years. This made me order a horn.
3:24
That dude yelling “play something” always makes me giggle. Knowing the decibels coming his way after that 😂
"It Is", phew, chills.
If anyone's wondering, the melody they used for Inferno is Beethoven's 9th symphony (1st mvnt)
I feel like I’m the only one who loves the e=mc^2 opening with a passion lmao
the sailboat !
I prefer the Relentless opener than OOTW... tbh
Same
love the reaction from the guy in the pink shirt

The Rach Star opening gave me chills
HELLO 2008???
And maybe 2006 as the first time the opening hit actually got applause, in the middle of the opener not just at the end.
The drum major for Rach Star just killed me lmao
My school's marching band took the Bohemian Rhapsody chunk from their 2011 show, it's really fun to play and just sounds amazing.
3:23, that guy that yelled "play something" :💀
Got that Rach Star opening with bohemian Rhapsody made my hair stand up.
And you’re telling me that none of these (with the exception of E) hot first brass?!
Rach Star still brings me to my knees a decade later. Crown is insane
Omg the marching band I'm in has a fly over flag too except we all die under it
MASSive? (That’s my band and we had one too)
Rach Star had me in tears
Same here
Me too 😅
Me too
“Play Something”
same, blew my hairs
The mello licks are EVERYTHING.
Y’all are sleeping on “it is”, the chords they play sound like the gates to heaven opening
3:40 that gave me the chills oh my god that’s beautiful
2011 is part of the best opener
In my country (Indonesia).Our marching band (marching band pupuk Kaltim) Also used the song Bohemian Rhapsody as an opener in 2008 and 2010
I think many people will agree with me on this when I say that Relentless has the best Crown Opening Hit ever. But you left it completely off of your list which baffles me. Just a matter of opinion and taste I guess
Preston Jones Thinking back on it, I don’t know why I chose ‘13 over ‘16.
Brett Lair I think ‘13 was definitely the best show, but ‘16’s hit was way better. On the matter of ‘14, I just see all of the technical softer stuff as part of the Opener as opposed to opening hit. Just different viewpoints
Jesus Christ the 2012 hit. Amazing as ever
The first chord of each show gets me every time istg
yes I love this year's opener so much. Can't wait to hear it in person!
Justin Boncosky saw them in Massillon, you won't believe your ears. each section just sounds like one person!
Luke Bingham, I don't know who you are, but you are stupid! There are obviously many more than one person in each section. dipshit.
You're right sir sorry
Luke Bingham Know your place
Joe Jenkins hey vsauce Michael here
I like the “It is” opener
bohemiem rhapsody opener
2012 has a really good opening hit, i really like your choices though. Crown can really make some of the best shows.
How could It Is make this list and not Relentless? That being said, obviously all their openers give me goosebumps. Love this corps no matter what the year brings.
7:15 I am suprised to hear an implementation of einstein on the beach in a marching band. Very neat!
Out of this world has to be my favorite show they have done
The fact that 08 isn't on this list is an absolute tragedy
Rach star still takes it for me
So happy i was there to see this live on finals night !!!!
Who's here after 2021
Me
This Corp will always bring a new meaning to Wall of sound
My school has the same opening hit as rach star and I’m excited now lol
Were those pillows inside of the tubas in E=Mc2?
I've never had something be almost TOO loud as Relentless was for those last 2 or 3 chords were when I saw them live. holy SHIT.
Rach Star was so perfectly timed!
2011 strong opener always makes me cry because of my personal history. The intensity of the music, power of every musician, the precision of the flags, rifles and corps themselves. You can see, feel, hear the snapping of every person in their place. I’m waiting and watching like everyone else with eager anticipation as I believe next year we will be altogether again. We must continue to have faith. We are strong and have a purpose to bring others happiness across the nation as we show that we we stand side by side with the colors of our skin and our many beliefs. When we are together on the field, strong in unity, we are one family of DCI Crown👑 ❤️
7:10 that drum major was my band director 2 years ago 🤓
2017 will always be my favorite
Comment is more for my memory than anything. I like the guard toss after minute 1.
Color guard in the last one was amazing ngl
2008 and 2016 are literally the best openers of all time lol

Dat Shit sound so good it’ll move you to tears😢 Lawd
Super great brass sound (balanced and big as opposed to a chainsaw ripping through sheet metal) Listen up Santa Clara! You never will change though GBY.
2001 space odyssey gave me goosebumps
I honestly forgot how hard Inferno’s last hit slapped. Like it slapped real hard.
Finis not being on this list is a crime
But they have so many good opening hits I get it
Give me my 2008 finis opener with that fire ending
You gotta do another video and add Beneath the Surface. They came out the gate kicking, screaming, and blasting people face off.
If I was thee for Rach Star, I’d be BALLING
3:42 gets me every time like....🤤
you done goofed not putting those two in there
Should I audition for Crown 2019?
Andrews Terraria do it
Yes
Yes!!!!!!!
It is better to try and not make it than to not try at all.
Even if you think you can’t make it, it’s still a great idea to go to the camps and learn as much as possible. My friend went to a BD and Crown camp, and he took the tips and advice he was given at Crown and used it in his BD camp, and now he’s contracted as a Blue Devil. So go to those top corps and learn as much as you can.
Rach star literally have me chills
I'd have had 2014 at 5th if its in the worst to best but I agree to 2017...had the privelage of being in the stands more than once to see them
There's nothing like that great brass swell in e=MC2
Finis and Relentless had some of the best hits as well.
How did Finis not make this list lol
Unbelievable Horn Line!!!!
My high school is doing a show based on Rach star this year. We are calling it Classic Rach

Miles Keaton facts
Both of yall are wrong
They should have won with Inferno.
2003 is the best for me, but then again, I may be a little biased ;)
Obviously it was after you made it but the 2019 opening hit was 🔥🔥
Like they came out the gate kicking and screaming.
Jose Hill yeah. They did. I saw them at Katy and they were awesome!
9:57 That’s my high school football field! It’s Clifton New Jersey and we have an amazing 8-5 marching band at Clifton High School, you should check us out at Romel Evangelista we have a ton of videos there! Hope you enjoy!
Look up “Nolensville High School Marching Band 2018” you won’t regret it. If you liked each star, you’ll like their show.
The chills
Omg the guard. 😮
relentless over 2013 even
Total power
Where did you find the video for Out of this world??? I'd love that show soo much and would listen to it over and over again
