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)

Romps like a milkmaid, kicks like a mule!
I think this song is actually a bit overrated. Not very creative and the somewhat catchy vocals are actually kind of annoying. Almost wish this song wasn't on the album. Usually the more I listen to a song the more I like it, but the more I listen to this one the less I like it. It's that damn chorus. Get rid of the chorus and you might have yourself a good song.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
