Rating metrics: Help 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 5% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.4/100, a mean average of 79.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.9.

An uncharacteristic song from John, usually the kind of twee fluff Paul would come up with. Still, it's nice enough in it's own way, a kind of White album version of a Disney song, with Ringo on vocals. It's great that by the end of the song Ringo sounds like the only one left in the studio. A sweet end to a rich confection of very different flavours in the musical chocolate box that is the White album. (Edited)

Sounds like the end of a very old movie. I guess it's only appropriate to end such an amazing album this way. (Edited)

Written by John as a lullaby for his son Julian, who was five years old at the time. The orchestral version that ended up on the White Album involved only Ringo on vocals. No other Beatle played on the song. It's one of the most beautiful endings conceivable for the monumental album the White Album is. (Edited)
