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)

Great song! Very well structured and defined, pretty good guitar riffs and a memorable chorus.
This song is the song that should be taught when someone is trying to learn how to write a song. It has an intro, verses, chorus, bridge, outro and those elements really working together in perfect harmony here.
Also, Deep Purple has not made a song better than this one afterwards. (Edited)
