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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 83.8/100, a mean average of 82.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.7.

Listen to the version on ‘I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings’ It becomes one of their best.
This song probably qualifies as weird Sh*t for many who dismiss this masterful album as leftovers and weird sh*t. But this song is simply brilliant. It's very emotional and haunting. I love it!
If someone asked me: "What is music?", I'd show him this.
A fine enough song, but the live version is MUCH better.

easily the highlight of the album
I didn't like this song at first, but it really grew on me.
