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 has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.9.

I used to be like you. I would think "What the hell were the Beach Boys thinking? You would have to be a child or Quentin Tarantino to enjoy this song". Well, as I listened to this album more and more, my eyes have been opened. I now give myself avocado cream foot rubs and avoid pieces of broken glass. To think that I never appreciated all the things my feet did for me. We have appreciation songs about people, reproductive organs, animals, so why not feet? My toes twinkle when I hear this song. Not only has this song taken a load of my feet, but it has taken a load off my mind. If you hate this song, I hope you wrinkle like a prune.

If it's not meant to be a joke, then it's just plain awful.
