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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 68.9/100, a mean average of 58.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 56.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 30.3.

Interesting chart.... Rick Astley. Wow . At least its painfully honest....very broad taste in music.... I'd be happy to listen to music with you

The high score is to offset joanna's low one I think a fifty is about right.

I like it, quite different from the average list.
Enema of the state was quite influential.
your top 10 is good but everything beyond that is crap

There a few good ones, but some of these automatically warrant the lowest rating possible.
