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 77.2/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.4.

So long Mum, Dad. 'In your eyes I'm not worth it'. What's wrong with these people- poor kid 'Give him back his alcohol'. Incessant primal layered drumming. Heavy heavy bass. Distorted guitar, pleading, accusing vocals. Nice mid section before probably once to often repeated lyrics. Nice end.

'Heal a million, kill a million'- sounds like Trump's response to the pandemic, except he doesn't mean the first bit.
