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)

78? Really? This deserves to have a star...
In reality, this is probably the 2nd best song off of Presence (after Achilles). I was turned on to this one after I heard Celebration Day, and I've loved this one ever since. This is the only track on Presence that fully utilizes the stop start thing they were going for, the riff is fantastic during the verses and the choruses/refrains. Another highlight of the song is Plant's raspy and desperate vocal delivery. This song is a forgotten stone cold classic.
