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 75.3/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.2.

Hectic, there's a lot going on in this track and that makes it a great listen.
It's nice to Genesis have fun with a song every once in a while, and you can definitely feel it on this one with its upbeat instrumental and its silly lyrics about famed comic book character Little Nemo and wild dreams that occur because he eats too much close to bedtime. I like to compare this one to All in a Mouse's Night from the previous album, as both have these kind of silly, story-time lyrics. While All in a Mouse's Night has better, more fleshed-out instrumentation, I don't think it fits the lyrics as well as the jumpy, cheery instrumental fits Scenes from a Night's Dream. I don't think it's anything close to being one of the highlights on the album, but it's certainly a fun tune.
