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 89.0/100, a mean average of 88.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.3.

When I listen to this song, each speaker takes turns saying "The Boys Are Back in Town." So cool! This is the perfect Thin Lizzy song.

Maybe biased, as this is the only song I know of with my name in it. Yeah, Jason...this was a real guitar band. Lots of stuff on the same level as this song by this band.

I first heard this song a classic rock radio station (no surprise there). I usually don't like the radio... but I was blown away. Probably the only great discovery I've made on the radio. The guitar playing on this track is "top drawer."
