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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.2/100, a mean average of 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.4.

"I'm counting sheep but running out"
This line is so relatable.

Not a very original song, considering it's like the third time an artist uses those those 5 chords in that same order and rhythm. (Like Led Zeppelin's "Baby I'm Gonna Leave You" and Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4"). Nevertheless, I always enjoy the **** out of it. It's more headbangable than the other two (not necessarily better), and sometimes there's beauty in the simplicity of a song. This is one of those cases.

Still one of the darkest and most unique songs in their catalogue, and one of my favourites.
