Rating metrics: Help 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)

A fine product of Paul's nostalgic heart, it's a homage to the music hall-songs he grew up with. The personnel on this song is quite extraordinary, with John providing the old-fashioned guitar solo and George playing a six-stringed bass. (Edited)

Well made, but the song can hardly interest me. Another typical McCartney song that is not representative of The Beatles as a close band. Jazzy and Music Hall-ish. Not my English cup of tea.

You can see what happened when Paul had to write albums by himself.

I bet Lennon would call this "Granny music shit", but it's a pretty good McCartney track with some really nice parts ;) (Edited)

Another of Paul McCartney's 'old time' numbers. It certainly doesn't have the authenticity of When I'm sixty-four, or the jauntiness of Your mother should know. It's okay, but you suspect McCartney wrote it because he can. Inoffensive and harmless fun. (Edited)
