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 very good song! Dave Grohl takes a good melody and keeps it at just the right tempo and heaviness to keep it where it should be.
classic foo song. really great happy tone to it
Listen, the song is obviously one of the Foo's best. But the Music Video is a 10/10.

This song is the epitome of inane commercial rock. Incredibly corny drivel.
