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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 86.8/100, a mean average of 85.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 17.7.

The sad thing is that this is so, so, so so so much worse than the original which is pretty great, but it's the only version that got played on the radio. I never even heard the original until today. I only knew this shit version.

Possibly the worst song ever to be played on "classic" rock radio
This song was originally written by Bruce Springsteen
