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 90.1/100, a mean average of 89.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.0.

This is simply a perfect song. A perfect pop track with an unbelievable hook.
What’s more is the song is immediately recognizable from a mile away from the tones of the synths alone. If they had only released Kids, and just Kids, MGMT would have still left an imprint on the musical eons.
Songs like these make me ask, how has this only been around since 2007?

Liking this song more every time I hear it. There are seemingly new layers on every listen, which makes it increasingly cool to me.
