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).

Would rate it higher if not for the cringe lyrics in the verses with those lame rhymes and word choices. Unfortunately this is the first strong case of Mark's questionable lyrics that really distracts you from the rest of the song.
The guitar riff is a bit repetitive but overall instrumentally it's a good song. (Edited)
