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 is rated in the top 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.7/100, a mean average of 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.6.

Steven Wilson singing a cover song of his choice and then recording a song that is inspired by the cover song. It is a bit patchy. In the first two recordings, the Cover Version is quite basic but better than the S Wilson penned tunes. However, he redeems himself for Cover Versions III and VI and the accompany songs.

This is actually a limited edition of the 6 singles released by Steven Wilson between 2003 and 2010. Each single consisted of a cover version of another artist's song and then a Steven Wilson composition inspired by the cover song.
