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 88.8/100, a mean average of 88.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.3.

It's an OK track but must admit I do find it to be pretty generic at times
Hate is definitely too strong, it just doesn't live up to their insanely high bar.
I guess I understand why the band hates it, but I completely disagree. Just because it's accessible and popish in no way makes this song bad. It's beautiful and inspiring, no matter how you look at it

This song is incredible, I don't care what Thom Yorke says. This was my first favourite Radiohead song.
Nice track, maybe not their most spectacular or experimental, but a great pop rock song :)
Quite good pop song. Radio material.

It's a simple song, but it's pretty.
While I don't know if there's any truth behind this statement, I've often heard that casual Radiohead fans love this song while hardcore fans despise it. I consider myself a hardcore fan, but I still love it! It's a shame that Thom Yorke himself has been quite vocal about how much he despises it.
One of my most favorite Radiohead songs, Thom's vocals are beautiful
Dunno why the band hates this song...it's great. Just because it's accessible doesn't mean it's bad
