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 track is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 87.1/100, a mean average of 87.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.3.

An absolute anthem. When they play this live they could legit get away with playing it for 25 minutes and I don't think anyone in the crowd would mind.

Just beautiful. Really doesn't get more poetic and uplifting than this. Hey Jude can kiss my ass frankly, this is so much more expansive, hopeful, delicate and powerful. To hell if you ain't got goosebumps when Guy Garvey kicks in that chorus of "Throw those curtains wide", or rather "kert' nss-wiide" in his beautiful Mancunian accent.
