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 has a Bayesian average rating of 76.7/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 19.8.

Why is this track so underrated? It's a slower track, yeah, but, like in "I gave you all" I can really feel all the instruments in this one and not just the banjo like in most of the best rated tracks, plus this one has a good crescendo.
I love the tune!
