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 is rated in the top 5% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.0/100, a mean average of 80.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.3.

One of the weaker tracks and the movie version of the track is better.

The uncut movie version (cut starting before the starting with the 'shall we drive more powerful cars' part) is better.
I will never understand why the hell they cut the fast part off.

Pink's now married, but the marraige is falling apart as The Wall gets bigger.

Very cool instruments!

Nice trippy stuff that fits well in the album. Nothing special out of context.
