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)

I could bet you 100$ that the boys from Grizzly Bear were greatly influenced by this song!
This is my favourite Bowie song. Overall not the best Bowie album, that would go to Ziggy or Hunky Dory, but this song is sublime.

Sounds a lot like Aladdin Sane's, 'Time' in some sections. Both solid songs.
An underrated Bowie gem.
This track gets better as you go through.

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 :(
