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 9% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.0/100, a mean average of 79.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.4.

Absolutely nuts that original Swedish lyrics were typical ABBA fare (consoling the namesake over his heartbreak) and then at some point in making an English version they wrote a reminiscent ballad about the Mexican Revolution. They did this without drugs. It's phenomenal.
Yet another gold-plated chorus, warmed by the kind of twinkling, oh-so-cheesy production only the mid-70s could produce. Flutes on the verses go to the rafters. It's all brilliant.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
