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)

What I hadn’t appreciated is that this was a replacement for Silver Springs (which apparently wouldn’t fit on Rumours) and that this is actually a Buckingham Nicks track.
Like everything on Rumours, it oozes quality. Certainly not the best track on the album but still pretty killer with great harmonies. (Edited)

Is I Don’t Want to Know the clearest standout or most essential track on Rumours? No. But it is one of the catchiest tracks on the record. Perfectly placed as well. (Edited)
