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 89.8/100, a mean average of 89.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.6.

Hey everyone - how can Mother Nature's Son below get 8 unhelpful votes simply for stating that in their opinion the song goes on and on?
It is a great song with superb lyrics but is a bit one dimensional. It doesn't have the punch of Subterranean Homesick Blues or the melody of Mr Tambourine Man.
Don't find this comment unhelpful because there is some criticism. Are we all to think the same and hold in disregard the different views of others?
"While others say don't hate nothing at all
Except hatred"
In my opinion, this is the most jaw dropping song in the entire Bob Dylan Canon. Lyrically, Dylan is as sharp as a knife, this song alone features many of his greatest lines, and musically it's arguably Dylan's most eerie and unsettling song. As far as i'm concerned, this song is the centrepiece of the Bringing it all back home album, not Mr. Tambourine man. It's alright ma, is one of Dylan's greatest songs. By the way, how is this not a top rated track?
Briljant song.
