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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 91.8/100, a mean average of 90.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.2.

While Guitars Weep, this is the epitome of Six Strings Canon!

Listen to Green Grass & High Tides by The Outlaws, then decide whether this track should be so highly rated!
This is one of those cases where a song becomes so overrated that it ends up becoming underrated again

I don't care how overplayed it is, it remains, and will always be, one of the greatest rock anthems of all time. Even when I don't care to hear it yet again, I still know this is the pinnacle.

It's a great track but I prefer 'That Smell', the guitar solos are better!
My God. It's almost too awesome.
Classic rock track. It's amazing taken as a whole but if you took the guitar solo away, the actual song would probably be nothing more than an okay. Still, the guitar solo does exist and, free bird, is a brilliant track, and as always with Skynyrd, there is so much feel to it. Superb.
