"They" == Kate.  She did all the changes herself, deliberately, to
achieve a different effect.

Nobody forced her to re-record it.  I think she's on record as having
stated that she wanted to re-record ALL the backing tracks but just
didn't have the time.

I won't flame you for your posting, because you're entitled to your
opinion no matter how misguided it is.  There has already been a war
on Gaffa a while back on this very topic, adn I'm sure nobody wants to
start it up again.  I just think the new vocal has more power to it.
