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)

Really really like this song. Whenever I hear the beginning I get so excited. (Edited)
A great guitar riff and a chorus that's arguably even more addictive than "Buddy Holly".
One of their best songs (Edited)
Thanks for introducing me to Weezer, FUNKe. (Edited)
