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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.6/100, a mean average of 83.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

Not as good as Mean Mr. Mustard, but it's a good song, enjoyable and has a bit of The Who about it. Works well in the context of the medley.

A nice counterpart to Mean Mr. Mustard. Great guitar work, lead and rhythm.
