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)

Beautiful song, well crafted and moody.
Another solid solo songwriting effort from Collins. The drum machine here is actually pretty interesting, and Collins' vocal performance is one of the best on the album. The lyrics, although repetitive in parts, are rather profound, addressing society's homelessness crisis. It never really evolves into anything past this atmospheric tune, so it's not nearly as interesting as something like Dodo/Lurker or the title track, but it's a fine piece of pop.
