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 is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 88.6/100, a mean average of 87.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.0.

These 13 and a half minutes seem to fly by. Amazing song.

My personal favourite IM song. An underated masterpiece.

An 85/100 average rating for this song does no justice. It's a masterpiece that deserves to be up in the high 80s-90s range.

Iron Maiden's longest epic. A masterpiece to close the album.
