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 79.9/100, a mean average of 78.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

Enjoyable
Gentle folk sounding like soundtrack to the fairytale.
What a beautiful voice she has and the control she possesses over it is astonishing. She always seems to be on the edge of breaking her vocal but she rarely does giving us a suspenseful and special performance that is really difficult to achieve. She guides us through the album with her delicate voice which is backed up by some great lyrics as well. She creates her own worlds for us to be able to explore and she is a phenomenal storyteller. The instrumentation is a perfect accompaniment to her voice and it fits the style of music so well. We are treated to some brilliant performances from the fiddle, harp, piano, organ, guitar, mandolin amongst many more which make this record so unique. It feels classic and like the sound of a time long forgotten when you would stroll through forests and grassland for hours and we were not held back by the constraints of modern day society. If I was going to make one criticism it would be that the music doesn't flow from one song to the next very well and that can give the album a bit of a stop start feel. Overall, this is a special album that transports you to places and is fantastic at making you forget your troubles with its innocent and beautiful sound which makes this album a must listen. (Edited)
