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)

Found this song from "Perks of Being a Wallflower". Great song.
A beautiful, beautiful song. To me, in a lot of ways, this atmospheric stripped-down track is the raw extract of the Smiths' melancholic sound. Sure, much of the lyricism in their catalog is firmly tongue-in-cheek, but they were equally sincere...and you cannot convince me that this heartbreaking track isn't sincere.
