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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 90.8/100, a mean average of 89.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.1.

Is this the best Bob Dylan song ? I would say yes indeed ! (Edited)
I was at a party once and I met a girl named Johanna after this song. She said her dad was a mad Dylan fan. I spent most of the evening quoting the song and telling her just how great her dad’s taste must be.
I would then go and mingle and another great line or couplet would come back to me and I’d go up to her again and tell her a bit more. That’s Dylan. Just when you think you’ve got a handle on how great he is, he keeps giving.
By the way Johanna, if you ever read this, sorry for being that over-earnest guy bugging you at that party. (Edited)
