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 has a Bayesian average rating of 63.9/100, a mean average of 59.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 59.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.5.

Stand out songs are"The medal song" & "The war song". Also "Dangerous man" & "The dive". On the 2003 re-issue the wonderful "Love is love" was included, but because of the urgency to issue before xmas '84 it was missing from the original album. "La Cancion de Guerra" is the great Chilean version of The medal song and is also on the re-issue.
Third time's not the charm. Admittedly rushed to get a new album out for the Christmas 1984 season, Waking Up With The House On Fire is mostly filler except for a couple bright spots, namely "Mistake No. 3" and "Don't Talk About It". Only for those who love and own the first two albums.
