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 is one of the best songs ever written, ever composed.
THe intro verse was sung with a voice that never gets old and is always young.
Basically this is one of the best songs ever written. No need to say anymore. Listen to it.
I was never really a big Hollies fan, then I watched Seeking a Friend for the end of the world and couldn't stop listening to this song. There's just something chilling, haunting, and yet heart-warming about it that makes it one of my all time favorites.
