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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.7/100, a mean average of 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

One rare occassion where I really like their lyrics.
My favorite song of the album besides the obvious Smells like teen Spirit.

My favorite part of the song is the harmonized vocals. Did Kurt do both parts on the album or did Dave Grohl do the backing vocals?

The best song on "Nevermind", shows that Kurt doesn't take himself too seriously.
