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 greatw ay to start a career. One of the most recognizable songs of the 90's.

The first post-grunge song, and one of the catchiest songs of all times.

Great riffing and melody. Excellent guitar work. It's a great classic rock song.

Great opening track - too bad they couldn't replicate it.
It is what it is: an excellent 90s alternative rock song. (Edited)
