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 93.2/100, a mean average of 91.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.1.

Beautiful song. The "If I could be who you wanted. All the time" ending is maybe my favourite 20-odd seconds of music ever
This might be their greatest song. This is beautiful
One of my favourite Radiohead songs. I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. Heck, I even wrote a one page essay on this for guitar class. "She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love" has resonated with me for years.

What a genuine beautiful, yet crushing song. I mean, it's Radiohead, what do I even say, it's well layered, well produced and played, it makes my eyes leak with water, it's gud. The way it starts is just so simple but powerful with Thom York's vocals alone, and then the drums come in, and then finally, the heavy climax of the song. It's well worth every second of build up, and then it just, goes back to being calm. Even at the time of Radiohead's career, other than "Creep", they weren't really making songs this heavy on emotion. While I really like "Creep", this song, and this album in general, feels like the step in the right direction. And then they changed sounds often, but hey, most bands do that, and Radiohead nailed most of their material, so good job, this comment's long enough, I'm done
Awesome track!
Such a pretty song by a band that hadn't really been making "pretty" tracks at this time. Their experimental stuff is all over the place but this highlights an early masterpiece

One of their best. Definitely one of their more accessible songs, but that's not at all a bad thing.
Hits you like a bowling ball and has the power to tear atoms apart.
