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 90.5/100, a mean average of 89.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.3.

Great song, wish it was longer.
It sounds like a mixture of electronica and reggae, love it.
I love this vibe. So perfect

What a great single from this amazing album ! Bowie's singing is very intricate, yet easy to remember.

The thing that stands out for me on Sound and Vision is it wonderfully, thoroughly emphasised order. Everything is lined up, correctly placed and fits like a glove.
And then Bowie sings around all that. Sometimes working with the music and other times breaking the pattern.
The composition is a metaphor in itself...like, how do you manage to do that? Who else has ever done that?

Bass line kicks ass on this

I love this song for giving me a reason to come back to this album after my first listen.
Pretty good!
Now this is a song. Those Low instrumentals with that Bowie style.
I'm still trying to get used to David Bowie's style.
