Rating metrics: Help 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 track is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 86.2/100, a mean average of 85.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

This song may not be innovative, but it's still a masterpiece. Gorgeous! This and Vanderlyle close out the album perfectly.

Sounds like "Brilliant Mind", by Furniture (1986), not a bad thing in my opinion. Play them side by side and see what you think...?

Stay the night with the sinners, cause they're desperate to entertain.... what was really great about the Boxer/High Violet double shot was Matt and band's full lyrical exploration of that late night vibe.
