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)

Solid enough tune that comes to life in the chorus. Another track that sounds like it could have featured on Never Let Me Down but superior to the stuff on that album - but this would have given that album a lift

One of the best tracks on Heathen and regarded as one of Bowie's best 21st century singles.
