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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.0/100, a mean average of 69.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.4.

Pointless rockabilly style song. The lyrics are banal and the music is uninspired.
Worst track off Presence by a mile. It's an aimless rockabilly tribute that's too heavy for its own good. Theres nothing in the lyrics, and the instrumentation is ridiculously simple and repetitive. How any critics could've called this one of Presence's best tracks bewilders me...
This sounds like a fifties rockabilly tune. Nice.
