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)

I love this song but the lyrics remind me of a text chain from an incel ?
The bass is amazing. The guitar is great too. I agree with the previous commenter, surely one of the best pop songs of the 21st century. 100/100

Very hard to argue that this isn't one of the best pop songs of the last 25 years.
Great baseline!
I love this track, its amazing!! Definitely one of my favourites from Tame Impala
