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 song is my favourite song of all time. The melody on the piano underlies everything. Its simple, beautiful tune is sublime and epitomises what music should be, powerful and wonderful. You can imagine yourself achieving anything listening to this and I don't even know what the lyrics mean. Its a song everyone should listen to and be immersed within.
