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)

The original is of course the all time classic, but this one with still-just-as-absurd-but-more-rounded vocals takes the pinch for me. And that extended guitar solo at the end! Feeling it utterly bathe you in its art rock power.
Wuthering Heights holds a firm place as one of my Desert Island Discs selections; nothing before or since it can truly compare to what Bush did with this one.

Wow, it still blows my mind. What a superb artist she is.
