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)

In response to Hawkinz, my interpretation was that it was all a dig at the other 3 beatles after their break-up. Her refers to the beatles to as "three legs". Dog got three legs but can't run, so saying the beatles can't be successful without him. He also says his fly only has one leg but still flies. Take from that what you will!
Great song, love the vocal, but can someone explain what it is about?
