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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.9/100, a mean average of 79.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

It should be made absolutely clear that this is bright shiny disco pop tunes, and nothing but it. If that is your kind of thing, this is a GREAT compilation from start to finish. Only a couple of tracks that could have been omitted, and really just Summer Night City mysteriously missing (probably because it wasn't a hit in the US). If that is NOT your kind of thing, you still have to admit that Bjorn and Benny sure could pen not one but a seemingly never-ending stream of catchy little melodies.
Like it or not, they could write great tunes.
When I was a teenager, this type of music was cringe worthy. Disco/Pop was the enemy. Now that I'm older (and have heard some terrible pop music), this music is actually not so bad. Cream of the crop of pop music. I wouldn't spend time with this band (getting into them), but if I want to listen to something with my wife that isn't terrible, this is something we can agree on and I don't want to tear out my eyeballs.
A wonderful, and large collection of well-made, catchy pop songs. I always compare this album to the Beatles' 1.
ABBA is a compilation-style band. GOLD was massive, and even though my sister played the crap out of it, I still like it.
