Rating metrics: Help 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 88.2/100, a mean average of 87.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.7.

I finished listening to London Calling, this song came afterwards as a suggestion based on my taste, and I thought it was a Monkees' song or some similar band. Little do I know it was The Velvet Underground, it does not sound like them, and I love the fact that they can sound like another band. I'm gonna listen this album soon definitely.
Me sorprendió tanto porque no se parece al estilo de The Velvet Underground and Nico ni a The Velvet Underground.

Simply a beautiful song, Doug Yule proved he did bring something to the table here.
