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 has a Bayesian average rating of 76.3/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.1.

How exactly is this song weak musically? The piano is absolutely outstanding, the guitar is fantastic, the strings are really epic. The vocal performance and lyrics are on another level. It MIGHT be the worst song on the album, but that's an extremely difficult decision to make. I love the vocals and lyrics on Soldiers Poem but I find THAT song more boring musically.
It's not that bad. I find Take a Bow, for instance, worse. At least in this one there is some experimentation and I find it serves as a good intro to their last track.
Worst song by far off this album musically, but the lyrics are heavenly. "I've had recurring nightmares that I was loved for who I am. Missed the opportunity to be a better man." Like what? Can I please write like that?
The album's worst track (and by some margin). Just boooring
