n = number of ratings an item has currently received.
m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

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 is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 88.7/100, a mean average of 87.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.8.

I do believe in Zimmerman. He's always been a visionary!

Really a true poem.

I think this is the greatest song John Lennon ever wrote
Leonard 04/13/2018 13:17 | #212796
John wrote this while Stars died on drugs. They had to fight against the demon of fame!
Should they believe in fame?
In what should they believe?

Really great second half of this song.

Two and a half minutes into this song is the exact moment when the Beatles truly broke up.
