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 beautiful song comes (in terms of sound), very close to the great "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts". Here too all elements come together in a unique way. Beautiful vocals, interspersed with a wonderful solo.
Talking heads at their best. Any one of these first five tracks are mindblowing,
