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 is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.2/100, a mean average of 79.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.0.

I often laugh out loud that "Greatest Hits III" is an actual thing. Think what you may about Queen, they wrote enough well crafted singles to jam-pack a CDs worth for Greatest Hits I with enough stellar songs plucked from disastrous albums to fill out a Volume 2.

But Greatest Hits III is woeful in its existence. Bloated with redundant remixes and some repeated songs combined with naff album tracks and "was that a single?"s. Mind you, the stuff from Innuendo is terrific - just buy that LP instead.

I don't like this compilation album, simply because they include songs that are different from the album version. For example, "I Want It All" is the single version, not the album version. I don't like how they did that.

This is essential music, plenty of love-able songs! Listened to it as a kid and still great.

Yes, it's a compilation. In fact it's 3 compilation albums grouped together. But jeezes, I wasn't bored for a second - more than tree hours Queen: no problem.

Only con is that some songs are repeated (because they appear on 2 of the 3 albums)
