Any chance of a link to a service that doesn't require I sign up for it?

Easily found on youtube My guess:
1-A really good LDC mic
2-Double-tracked(skillfully)
3-sung by someone very conscious of mouth noises, working very close
4-Lots of compression(maybe 2 or 3 in series)
5-thru a preamp with a very forward character(API 312?)
