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 has a Bayesian average rating of 72.1/100, a mean average of 71.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

Hmm... Didn't expect to see so many negative comments.
IMO - a lovely and hearfelt album.
A nice and relaxing listen that gives off a John Lennon vibe. Very smooth melodies on on this record
it reminds me Badly Drawn Boy.
A man and his piano.
Next year nobody's gonna remember it.

Very fine, calming album, shows a lot of potential. "The Wait" is a definite high point.

I think the piano sometimes sound like John Lennon on "Imagine", but, oh no, he is not the new Lennon (or Newman, or,,,)
The album is OK, it´s calmful and personal it has nice tunes, but it´s tooo relaxing, too drap and a bit boring.

Like many have said, this is an album to relax too. Sometimes it gets too relaxing but it's strong nonetheless. Most importantly this shows great promise for even better material in the future.
Was a little turned off at first cause most of it was very much love song/breakup song dominant, but the more I listened to it the addicted I got to this album. Strong debut and I'm definitely loving it more and more with each listen.
This album is really stripped down to the basics. Yet it gives me really heavy chills and is so captivating throughout, lead by how it seems only Jesso Jr.'s voice <3
I wasn't that relaxed listening to a record for a long time now

Damn i just love this album! Newman, Elton, McCartney vibes. I dont think theres a skipped song in the bunch. But my initial standouts are Hollywood, The Wait, & How Could You Babe.
