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 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.4.

This album is so beautiful, if I’m the first to say it, it is so beautiful that it makes you cry. It gives so many emotions. I hate crying and I haven’t cried many times the last 10 years. I’d say about 9 times in the last 10 years. This album was one of them. Her music is so touching and ethereal and can be surreal. Love her Melodies and synths. (Edited)

Enya's vocals are at their most ethereal on this album, more beautiful than even Watermark.
