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)

An excellent song. Not quite a perfect 100/100, but pretty damn close. This is nerdy, corny, quirky, Weezer doing what they do best.

Totally sounds like Brian Wilson at the beginning
I don't care what they say about us anyway. I don't care about that!

Great song, but what's up with the serial killer showing up during the bridge?
