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 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.6/100, a mean average of 81.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.6.

Best harmonies of the album

A rollicking rocker, where McCartney displays again that he could be "The Man of A Million Voices". I'm not the biggest McCartney disciple, but I do like this and a few other songs on the "Help!" album.
One of Paul McCartney's contributions to the Help! album, the night before, is another of the many 'filler' tracks on the record. Similar to, another girl, it's a bluesy rocker that features some superb backing vocals throughout. It's nothing substantial, but it is a thoroughly enjoyable track, and coming after the title track and before, you've got to hide your love away, helps to make it a solid start to the LP.

Pretty good. Melodies are great and the overall feeling of the song is good.
