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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.7/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.2.

Before Fiona Apple there was Tori Amos and listening to this highly acclaimed debut the inspiration is clear. ‘Little Earthquakes’ can be a tough listen with the omnipresent “Me and a Gun” (which graphically narrates a sexual assault) casting a very dark shadow over the entire project

One of the Laura Nyro mantle inheritors has made a beautiful album. I have a problem with it. It is a dark and tad painful listen. Made for dark and rainy Novembers, not sunny March days.

Kate Bush definitely comes to mind when trying to draw a comparison (especially on China), but there's also a distinct alt rock attitude throughout.
Magnific album. From the first listen, I have feel in love with Tori's voice. I'm definitively going to listen to the rest of her discography.
Excellent album not weak track on it. A very talented singer/ song writer.

Powerful, but only right for a certain mood.
I usually find it hard to relate with a female singer/songwriter, but her simple and direct approach is quite effective.

One of Her best

Number 55 on my greatest list, great album.

Although I prefer the fuller sound and more cryptic lyrics of the next two albums, it's hard to deny how powerful the girl-and-a-piano confessional approach is. This is an impressive debut.
Favorite tracks: Crucify, Precious Things, Little Earthquakes
