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 91.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 9.9.

One of the most tender and haunting songs I'v ever heard. Simple acoustic arrangement with clear lyrics. The soft backing vocals add to a beautiful build up.. The sound of melancholy lies so deep within thi song.

ONe of the most pure songs BIg Star ever made and a little bit outside their usual ground.
