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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.1/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Grande referência do pop francês e iê-iê-iê.
This is a very short and sweet album which has a lot of catchy and enjoyable songs. Definitely an album to listen to if you like easy listening and just relaxing music. Her voice is the main centrepiece as it is so soft and delicate and with the lyrics being in French it makes it so beautiful to listen too. Overall, it is a good record but there isn't too much to explore below the surface.
catchy and cute
