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 is rated in the top 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.5/100, a mean average of 86.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.6.

A Top 20 all-time Rolling Stones song, and certainly among their best of the 70's.

Probably the best song on the album. This one certainly sounds the most genuine of any song on the album. Not hard enough to be a rocker and not soft enough to be a ballad, this one nevertheless is unique and compelling.

This is a good song, although slightly overlong, and it does have the feel of the Stones trying too hard. Still, it's decent enough with some virtuoso guitar playing from Mick Taylor. Not great, but certainly very interesting.
