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 70.9/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.0.

Didn't realize that this was retitled as The Celts in 1992. Had to change my charts haha.

Anyways love this album. I've always been curious about Enya's first album even though I've actually been listening to it this whole time, explains why The Celts album sounds so 80s haha. This is my favorite Enya album. It's the one I go back to the most but lately it's been Memory of Trees. She's an underrated artist. People poke fun because she's considered new age. But her music is beautiful and fun and at times pretty dark so I'm definitely a fan. (Edited)

Wondrous! Really the only Enya album I listen to often. It's beautiful and somewhat haunting.
