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)

I won't say the song is perfect. Personally I find the first verse really long, albeit it bears an incredible start without a doubt. When the song's about to end, magic happens. This is one song that at frist appears to be a quiet but delicate piece of art, but when the instrumentation piles on, it is stunning.
This is the musical rebuttal for anyone who claims she isn't a wonderful singer...
The build-up is really slow, but the pay-off is fantastic.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
