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 artists can have several thousand ratings)
This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 69.6/100, a mean average of 68.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 20.9.

Bryan is the most criminally underrated artist of the last 30 years. And yet he has managed to yield an amazing body of work. Not in vain he has the record for the longest consecutive weeks at #1 in the UK ('Everything I Do I Do it For You'), and altogheter with Michael Jackson's 'Thriller', the only album to feature 6 US top #15 singles ('Reckless').
Nevermind the numbers and facts, Bryan is one of the few (if not THE) who hasn't changed his voice in 30+ years. All the best singers in rock n' roll history have diminished their voices within no more than 15-20 years, but Bryan is an unique exception. Also, at the time he became famous and after that his music have been unique too. No other band or artist sounded like him back then. No other band or artist sound like him today.
One of the greatest. Along with Rush, best ever artist from Canada.

Not criminally underrated. Decent, simple, pop-rock. Sold a lot of records, but didn't do anything new or dramatic artistically. Music is full of artists like Bryan Adams. Good, but unremarkable.
Summer of '69 is the best song of the '80s

Viola - nothing against Bryan Adams... He writes decent, catchy pop-rock. But don't kid yourself - on par with John Lennon...? Either you exaggerated for effect, or you're deluded about the impact of songwriters.
Good heartland rock.
