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 is rated in the top 14% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 78.0/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.6.

Along with Rock and roll music, twist and shout, baby it's you, and, long tall Sally, please Mr.postman, is another of the Beatles superb cover versions. This has a great feel to it, lots of energy, and with some great vocals(lead as well as backing), it's one of the most enjoyable and infectious of all their covers. Brilliant. (Edited)

A Motown cover full of urgency and longing with tight vocal layering and driving beat. (Edited)

Pure energy this one. Nice cover of a rather bland Motown track. (Edited)
