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 is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 91.4/100, a mean average of 90.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

Despite being less than 3 minutes long, the word that best describes it is "epic".

This is probably the song that I've heard the most in my life. Maybe because it's short and easy to listen to. Or maybe because it's just that good. Simple but powerful song. I'm usually not too concerned with lyrics but the lyrics here are some of my favorite.
