as far as i know all of them, although the FC songs are remixed as well, to great success

I liked the majority of the remixed tracks too, and maybe i'm in the minority here, but I'd much prefer the original version of "Courage".

I’m with you Opiated, Courage and Fireworks are two songs I could live without for the rest of my life. However, I must admit that after listening to Yer Favorites last week I think the song that benefited the most from the remastering was non other than Courage (no offense ryan93).

for me the best remastering was Looking for a place...
now, just to bring this up again(call it a bonner-like obsession

) ..listening to the album, Fully Completely in the track listing on the back cover is a way better listen than how they are on the actual cd...

One of my favorite Hip tunes, the extended ending is great indeed…

I have to disagree. The biggest problem that I have with the original FC album production is that the drums sound unnatural, almost machine like. I applaud the fact Don Smith was brought in to re-mix the FC tracks for Yer Favourites, however
those drums are now even higher in the mix! Where was Don when FC was recorded? It's too bad that he wasn't kept on to produce FC originally. Don's production of UTH and RA was great and very
live sounding. One can only imagine how much greater FC could have been. I wonder if Chris Tsangarides every got an offer to produce another record, after his horrid production job on some of the greatest Hip songs ever written..very sad. At least we can still hear these songs live, the way they were meant to sound.
