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)

I choked the first time I heard it. "Another one bites the dust" meets "Suicide blond" (plus "Thriller's" "...and I hope that this is just imagination", and who knows how many more). It's more of a guilty pleasure since.
I also like this song - I can get some of the other influences below but I'm also hearing INXS and right at the intro I can imagine Flight Of The Conchords putting that together :-)
I like this song :P Can't go wrong with some funk! Kind of derivative of Queen and Stevie Wonder but those are good influences to have!

This song is all over the place. Funky bass line with trumpets playing over the chorus and a crazy solo.
Too over the top? Yes. Completely un-Muse-y? Yeah. But it's pretty good
