Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some artists can have several thousand ratings)
This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 68.8/100, a mean average of 65.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.5/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 18.6.

While their pop hits each soared to deserved heights, The Bangles couldn't maintain that level consistently. Their harmonies were great, and each was a talented singer in her own right, but it often didn't come together as a whole. There was always haunting suspicion that session musicians actually played the band's entire music catalog, while the group only provided the vocals. So this speculation has somewhat tainted the band's reputation. Still more appealing than The Runaways!
Wonderful melodies.
Eternal flame a great song - they were fun - whatever happened to fun

They did offer us a couple of pop classics. One has to admit:
They WERE fun, weren't they?
