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)

Just a perfect song
Part of what made the original good was that there was... less electric guitar. Still, great until the end which wasn't that spectacular.

Great version of this song! Plant sounds great and Jimmy's guitar has a great distortion. There is a few moments where you can hear feedback but nothing too serious.
