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)

Very clearly a response to Norwegian Wood, but in that, it’s amazing how he frames the melody to be different. And yes, the instrumentation is beautiful. (Edited)
This song sweeps me off my feet, like new love. It can be silly but so can infatuation. (Edited)

those little classical guitars really make this track what it is
