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)

Kinda motivational, but the mood and Billy's voice made it for me.

Another song with a Tnotch ending with some revealing lines like "my life has been extraordinary / blessed and cursed and won / time heals but i'm forever broken " where "the world so hard to understand / is the world your can't live without / and i knew the silence of the world ". Love unrequited.
