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)

"She's dead! Wrapped in plastic!" The frothy water from the falls cascade over a motionless form on the riverbanks below ensconsced in a clear tarpaulin and Julee Cruise ushers in the mystery that enchanted a nation. A perfect piece of memoribilia.
Simple, but beautifully atmospheric. A lovely song, full of aching, longing and of course, mystery. Fortunately, it is happening again....

Timeless, enigmatic and emotion packed. Hearing this immediately conjures up slow images of a the Pacific North West, cold weather and one of the greatest TV shows of all time.
