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)

One of the most pristine and timeless examples of brilliant 80s pop. Gorgeous new-wave synthetic sounds mixed with some alternative guitar and string together with glamouring and echoey vocals that add a fantastic sense of foreboding.
New Wave!
The perfect pop/new wave song of the 80's
Best song on the album
