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 69.0/100, a mean average of 66.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.0.

Another instance where the rockists on this website skew the ratings of an album that deserves better. This is a seriously well crafted Spanish R&B album. Nelly Furtado and Timbaland's chemistry is astounding.

I HAAATE R&B (especially by female oversingers!) but this rises high above the form. A lot here is irresistible and All Good Things is just gorgeous. (Edited)

Good dance-pop/electropop album. Best 10 songs average is 84,2/100 and the album can get good 85/100. Best songs are "Say it right" and "All good things (come to an end)" both 90/100, followed by "Maneater" and "In god's hands" both 85/100. All other songs in the region of 70-80/100.

The defining Pop-RnB record of 2006, glistening with the Timbaland production on those lead singles and the attitude of Furtado elsewhere. Her blend of Western Pop solidness with Worldbeat flair gives Loose a heat under its surface, dressed up in mid-2000s glam. It's without a doubt Furtado's most complete work, brimming with so many fantastic tunes.

Nelly is feeling good... She's all grown up on this album. Catchy, but disposable.
