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)
This track has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 75.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.7.

Again, a very soft and sweet song but a little corny in my opinion.
I dunno, this song teeters on the line between a good love song that is filled with some deep sentiments, and just another corny love song that uses the same concepts we've heard a million times.

The more average side of Thriller. The worst from the album.
Great romantic song
