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).

One of the Rolling Stones most beautiful ballads. Totally underrated and one of the best tracks on the album. Lovely song.
Feel like Mick and the boys were channelling a little bit of Van Morrison influence on this soaring, majestic ballad. (Edited)
