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 60.6/100, a mean average of 56.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 56.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 17.0.

Not much to commend this filler of a song. Is it a song at all? Strip it back and there's barely a song there. Poor. The worst track for me on this album.
Oh dear. This is another shouty piece of tuneless drivel and amazingly it's even worse than earlier track Fight. An absolutely terrible attempt at a song, at least that's what i assume they were attempting to write. What a mess.
