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)

What an incredible track. I had the pleasure of seeing Kate perform this song at the Hammersmith, or whatever it's called now. One of the many highlights of that evening, I'll never forget it.
One of the many highlights off of the suite of songs (A Sky of Honey) which I believe to be this album's golden age.
