Rating metrics: Help 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 albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album has a Bayesian average rating of 71.8/100, a mean average of 71.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.7.

Contrary to popular belief, Little Earthquakes wasn't Tori's debut album; this was. It was a Pat Benatar-esque hair metal album, too. Though you'll have to head to pirate sources to find a copy for under $70, I think it's well worth the questionable download. It's sorta sad that Cyndi Lauper's debut sold millions, while this, while a much better album, sold miserably.

To be completely honest, I don't understand why this was such a commercial disaster. Sure, Tori Amos looks like a bimbo on the album art (and, in a few tracks, sounds like one, too), but this is still, for the most part, a great Pat Benatar ripoff.
