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)

I guess we'll just have to adjust! (Edited)
So soaring and uplifting following the heartbreakingly beautiful "Crown of Love". What an amazing album!
I honestly can't think of a more uplifting song than this.
One of the best on the album!

So wonderful. It's so epic. It just makes me want to raise my hands in the air and sing the "ooooh"'s with the rest of the band.
