It did for me, and I was using good headphones.  :)

I like 3 of the 4 "new" songs ("Angels" is the only one that kinda let me down
- sounds like a SW reject), and I like the touched up sound quality on all the
old songs...EXCEPT for "Spark", which I think sounds much less powerful and
direct than the original.  All the others, though - very nice, especially
"Cornflake Girl".  I love the added harmony during the "man with the golden
gun" section, and the whole track sounds so much more clean, crisp, and less
conglomerated than the original.  (wow, that was a lot of "c" alliteration)

"Northern Lad" on the DVD is LOVELY, by the way.  I honestly never liked that
song before, but something in the way Tori brought it out here made a big
impact on me.

My biggest complaint: no "Caught A Lite Sneeze" *OR* "Hey Jupiter" on the CD! 
I know BFP brings back a lot of difficult memories for Tori, and those songs
are really emotional and personal, but still.  They are two of her greatest,
best-loved songs.  At least one of them should have made it on there, in place
of the bland "Tear In Your Hand" (LE tracks hog a lot of space on the
collection as it is).

But I can't have everything I want, blah blah blah...it's still a good
compilation overall.  :)
