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)

A hit for the Miracles, this soulful ballad is beautifully harmonised with emotional depth but as good as it is, it doesn't match the original.
Decent version of Smokey Robinson's classic with John Lennon on top vocal form. One of the best cover versions on the album. Certainly better than Devil in her heart.
