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 88.1/100, a mean average of 86.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.4.

One of the greatest songs of all time. Such beautiful piano playing and perfect lyrics about tumultuous youth. I will never tire of this one.

Lovely song - both lyrics and music. Provides me calmness in these times of hurry.
Baffled that he speaks about slowing down and taking out your phone for a day or two in 1977!
