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)

Ignore my previous comment, I was too stuck up. 'Toxic' is one of the keystones in 2003's continued cultural relevance. Sexy, slick, James Bond does pop. That sample!! Britney absolutely untouchable on this. I think I'm ready now.
This is one of the best examples of a perfect pop song.
Grande música das pistas de dança!
Underneath the slight chinciness of the production, it's a very competent pop song, and certainly one of the most distinctive of the 2000s.
Also, have a search on YouTube for the No Autotune version of this; her vocals are surprisingly good without being doctored, and it adds another edge to this song.
Yep, probably the only truly good song in Britney's career.

This is actually a great track, and the best thing Britney has done.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
