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 72.9/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

It's getting harder and harder to log on to BEA without reading about Tori Amos or Bjork, yet somebody who dubbed herself a diva and then lived all the way to expectations gets pushed to the wayside in the following twenty years. This voice. This fucking voice. I love her. Might be my favorite female vocalist of the 80s-90s. No disrespect to Kim Deal. (Edited)
