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)

This track has a Bayesian average rating of 72.7/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.5.

Standard '80s pop. I don't think "boring" is quite the right word to use here, but it's certainly not as interesting as most of the material on this album. There are some nice vocal harmonies in the final verse, and Rutherford flexes his guitar in little licks all throughout, but the rest of pretty meh. It doesn't really go anywhere musically, and the lyrics about a relationship in conflict are about as standard '80s as it gets. Not a bad song, but not one of the album's more notable moments.
