Rating metrics: Help 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 has a Bayesian average rating of 69.5/100, a mean average of 68.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.4.

A playful rocker, lyrically simple and not much else (Edited)

Nothing more than filler. It has a nice energy about it like most of the stuff on With the Beatles, but to be honest there's not much of a song there. So-so. (Edited)

It's a little interesting, but not well put together at times.

Lame lyrics. But some okay bluesy stuff.
