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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.7/100, a mean average of 81.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.9.

First kind of pop song and maybe the weakest track on the album

Begins with some fun, bouncy orchestral instrumentation before giving way to a slick rock 'n' roll groove. Doesn't hold the same power in the second half of the song that the first had, but it still deserves the title of hidden gem.

It isn't a bad song but IMO it doesn't fit with the rest of the album.

As is often the case with the John Lodge-penned tunes, this is the grooviest one on the album. Much fun to listen to.

Inicio instrumental y un final al estilo pop de los 60's pasando por surf rock
