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 63.7/100, a mean average of 61.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 61.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.1.

I liked three singles from this album, 'I Knew I Loved You', 'Crash & Burn' and the fun 'The Animal Song'. I don't care for the other songs which were released as singles though.
I somehow prefer the slower songs here - 'Two Beds and a Coffee Machine', 'You Can Still Be Free' and the haunting ' I Don't Know You Anymore' are all beautiful ballads.
There were definitely the better male pop bands which were so popular in the late 90s and they made two quite good albums.

this guy has such a great voice, sounds like Smokey Robinson..."I knew I loved you" is one of the best pop singles
