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 68.6/100, a mean average of 67.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 27.0.

A-ha are the dictionary definition of pop-fluff; still aiming for mass market appeal, but standing far above the made-for-the-charts commercialised rubbish that is more common.

A number of stellar pop hits, generally good albums and a certain style that really adds some brilliant uniqueness to this quintessential synth-pop and new wave band.

Absolutely one of the most memorable acts of the 80s and one who's music still holds up without a hitch today.

I remember their video being popular, but like much of the 80's, I didn't like the sound.

@ffudnebbuh First of all, if you haven't heard the albums, you shouldn't have rated them with 25/100. Second, if you're interested in music, the fact that they appear so high in ratings (as you, yourself claim) should maybe move you towards giving it a shot and hearing those albums?

As good as a pop band could do.
They are a textbook example of corporate marketeers getting their target audience wrong. What happened was that they got some hunky scandinavian guys and thought to themselves "this is a boy band. Let's market them towards teenage girls". #Fail.
It took a few years and a lot of commercial decline BUT nowdays they are recognized as a major influence to a lot of contemporary bands, including coldplay, keane and the like...

They are only known as a "one-hit wonder" here in the USA, but everywhere else in the world they are huge. One of the best bands Americans don't know!
