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)

One of the most brilliant of all Beatles b-sides. Rain, is a superb creation, all drony vocals and backwards guitars, it's one of the first of the fab four's so called psychedelic tracks. Recorded at the celebrated Revolver sessions it just goes to show how innovative and consistent the band were at this point that they could leave this song of the album. Rain is also the blueprint for almost every Oasis track ever recorded, but not one of them in the same class as this classic track.
