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 has a Bayesian average rating of 47.7/100, a mean average of 43.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 43.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 32.1.

This. THIS is the reason why Nickelback are so god-awful. This insult to music has to sheer audacity to suggest that Nickelback have achieved such status as "rock stars", coming at the end of the album like a snarky final insult.
Here's the thing though - it's written like it was made for KidzBop, has dreadful production and its subject is so pandering, pathetic and dull that it questions whether it actually is a song or not, or just a crap joke. (Edited)

It's really not that bad of a song... (Edited)
