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 has a Bayesian average rating of 66.8/100, a mean average of 49.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 49.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.2.

Very funny and girlish.
I´m always wondering why there are so few indian people around here?
crazy chart from schizophrenic pop-alt-rock fan. i viewed wondering what a chart featuring "broadcast" at #1 looks like.
Holy Crap! Modern Talking AND Mr. President!
Sorry, but I just don't get this chart.
Backstreet Boys over Led Zeppelin ? I suggest you listen more to GOOD artists starting with OneRepublic and eventually,gradually making your way to true GREATS...and BTW A.R.Rahman >>>>>>>>>>>>> Anu Malik and Pritam.
Nice to see Night at the Opera. That and Layla are all I can give you credit for :S, sorry, not my style.
I've just added some of the albums, its not complete yet, and is still unsorted. It may appear better when the ranking is complete.. :)
