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)

Great lyrics.
I hear Trump Plays this at his rallies
Just, a lyrical MASTERPIECE
Strangely, this may be my favorite track from The Wall. Very nicely done.
Water's lyrics. Woah!
Believing he himself is a fascist dictator, Pink begins a reign of terror with his fans.
I love how lyrically shocking this is!
