Not to be the huge music nerd, but the 'effect' the producers used is actually pretty ingenious - instead of simply 'cleaning' the sound with ProTools-style effects, they actually took all of her takes and layered them on top of each other, over and over again. By doing this, they 'deepened' the sound - the theory is that she's not a good singer, but she's close enough that she's just barely missing, so the imperfections come out in the wash through the layers.
It's interesting - but it also means anyone can do it w/ enough time in the studio, so prepare to see a shitload of these types of albums now . . .
