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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.6/100, a mean average of 82.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.0.

One of my favourites on the album. So here we have a 20 odd year old Paul Weller writing a song about a middle aged housewife (who's kids have all flown the nest) having an emotional breakdown in her now meaningless life. Especially like the clever breakdown moment towards the end of the track..."alone at 6 o clock, you drop a cup, you see it smash, inside you crack, you can't go on but you sweep it up, safe at last inside your private hell"

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
