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 my opinion this is the least successful of George Harrison's indian excursions. It's a decent track, but considering how fast the Beatles were progressing, Harrison should have moved on from these kind of songs by this time. Still, it's alright, just not in the same class as Love you too or Within you without you.
