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 albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Nice to hear the rendition of Dylan's 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue'.

LISTEN...TO...THIS...ALBUM !!!
It's absolutely fabulous and the collaborations with other artist work really well:
- The duet with Nick Cave is breath-taking
- and otherwise the violins all over the album from Warren Ellis are really adding something extra
- very good collaborations with Ed Harcourt on New Moon in Paris and Mark Lanegan on They Come At Night
- a very good cover of It's All Over Now Baby Blue
- and last but not least she's covering herself on Witches Song and As Tears Go By
While the album is all about death as so many artists did before her these last years, her voice is still absolutely incredible and all the collaborations and covers aside, this is still her very personal album.
