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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.6/100, a mean average of 83.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.4.

Very good subtle folk track just before the buzzing ful stop. fits in perfectly
Seriously under-rated beautiful track! Love it!
Sin duda la canción más floja del nuevo álbum.
So catchy and make you wanna stomp your foot and dig your "Radio"head.
Short term to describe this... Radiohead going country ;)
