No one's gonna come as long as I lay still in bed beside her

Sé sjálfan mig syngja sem
Fagnaðarerindið við sömdum saman

The song we once wrote together.
We once had a dream
We had everything

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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 13% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.5/100, a mean average of 88.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.8.
