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 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Not as consistent right through like the debut but still a decent album. Couple of weak tracks but overall it's great second up effort. Very enjoyable. Contains the best song she's done in 'Not Fair'. Catchy and hilarious.

"It's Not Me, It's You" is essentially a very impressive pop album with an electronic sheen and wildly diverse, sometimes beautiful, production. Lily manages to retain her humour and sardonic wit whilst building great pop songs. Most of the tracks are catchy (some extremely so) and it may be an unpopular opinion, but I think this is an improvement over her debut record. Solid stuff.

22 & The Fear may the best thing the 00s had to offer to us. I tend to not being an addicted to pop, but even a man made of stone can't resist to it.

Much of the same as Alright Still - some decent tracks, some passable filler. Nothing wrong with this album, but not much substance to it either.

Not only is this enjoyable pop, but the lyrics are either very witty, or very powerful. 22 is cruelly depressing, Chinese was the sweetest song I've heard in a while, Back To The Start was disturbingly relatable, and Him gave me chills. Very strong piece of work here.

It's pop music, nothing more. But it's catchy and fun, which is what pop music is supposed to be about, right?

The Fear is a fantastic song! Really blew me away when I first heard it.
