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 92.5/100, a mean average of 91.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.5.

My favorite song of all time, and without doubt one of the greatest album openers you'll ever hear. The bridge contains some of the best licks ever played on a Sonic Youth song, and the main riff is almost as amazing. Also Thurston's best vocal performance.

What a beautiful song! Definitely the best song on the album and their best song. The beginning is pretty cool, but once the main part kicks in it's one of the best songs of all time. So much influence! Every modern indie rock band takes so much from this song.
