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 86.5/100, a mean average of 86.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.0.

This is kinda like the George Harrison track of Key of Life.
I like all of what goes on here and it’s catchy in a non-traditional way. However, I don’t think Pastime Paradise (currently 86/100) is a better song than Knocks Me Off My Feet or Summer Soft (currently both 84/100), the songs that surround it in the track-listing.

Shows how lazy of a song “Gangsta’s Paradise” really is. It’s literally just this whole song sampled lmao.

It's true, They've been spending most their lives living in a pastime paradise. The music fits very nice with the lyrics.
Now I know why Gangster Paradise actually sounded good.
