Rating metrics: Help 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 album can be split into chill somewhat psychedelic music, and classic grunge, this is my favorite of the grunge songs on the record.

I'd go as far as to call this one of the most underrated songs of all time, it's amazing and never recognized.

I have loved this song for decades now. I like driving and cranking this and thinking of all the other people in their sad machines. (Edited)
