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)

I wish it was longer. (Edited)
Probably my favourite thing that Paul McCartney has ever done (Edited)
Para mí, esta canción es el comienzo de la secuencia más hermosa de los Beatles, el medley con Carry That Weight y The End.
Terrific vocal
Pretty perfect.
