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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.8/100, a mean average of 84.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

Zexen47 is a retard
John's heartbreaking ode to his late mother, he wrote the song during the Beatles' stay in India. Donovan, one of the other students of the Maharishi, taught John the finger-picking guitar style that is featured on this track. John was, as can be expected of this song, the only musician who played on this song.
A little too sleepy for me.
Beautiful!
John Lennon's loveliest contribution to the White album. Julia, is an achingly beautiful track, a gorgeous acoustic number that closes the first half of the record on a high. Haunting in it's delivery, it's addressed to his late mother, and is another brilliant example of the new finger picking style the Beatles adopted in India. One of Lennon's most underrated and endearing songs.

Such a chill and beautiful song. It's like being in a trance. Too bad I don't know any Julias.
