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)

I love the bassline on this. It's quirky but it works. I love the new sound.
A solid pop song. It tries to harken back to classic prog Genesis with its story of a man who sees the future as a beautiful, bright place but is told to lie and "keep it dark," all in 6/4 time. But I think it comes a little short of the mark musically, as the same six-note guitar riff plays in the background throughout the entire song, and Collins' drumming is entirely uninteresting. The loud swelling climax of the final verse is pretty great, though.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
