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)

@JMan Tempo changes build up adrenaline and atmosphere. Generally in underground gigs people look for crescendos, tempo changes, and additional instruments to add more atmosphere to the gig. Not just live though, in studio it will build up a hell of a lot more excitable atmosphere.
Anyway, I can only really speak in terms of live music. When there is a change in the song live, the crowd will go mental. It's like their opium.
Good indie rock, but the tempo change was a bit pointless.
