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 6% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.4/100, a mean average of 82.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 8.6.

This is Ryan Adams' gorgeous and epic homage to the Grateful Dead, a song that both evokes the beauty of a mythical mountain somewhere in the American South and offers a guitar riff that belongs on center stage in an arena filled with 60,000 acid-dropping hippies. This great song sets the tone for Ryan Adams's finest album--slow and patient, but with a sweet spot of guitar distortion that evokes the greatest rock songs of the sixties and seventies.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
