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 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.8.

Can't make up my mind. Is it a nice contrast to the rest of the album or is it totally out of place? The general opinion seems to be it is the least best track on the album. Any thoughts on where this song came from?

My theory is that the band must have spent a heavy night out with the Olivia Tremor Control at Cubist Castle. It's the only explanation.
