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 has a Bayesian average rating of 70.6/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.6.

The Rolling Stones try for Saturday night's alright for fighting with this ridiculous track. It's obviously not meant to be taken too seriously, but it is pretty awful and not a patch on Elton John's classic.
