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)

Syd Barrett at his best, one of my favorite pop psychedelic tracks of all time
Another simple straight forward tune - poppy psychedelic
This is how I like my music
Magical song. The atmosphere is so haunting.
Yippee! You can't see me

Such a beautiful song with guitar playing that works so well with the piano.
