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 85.1/100, a mean average of 84.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.3.

Reminds me a bit of what Swans would do in future, more specifically parts of the album Glowing Man which is the one I have more familiarity from Swans reminds me of this one.
The outro alone deserves a grammy.

What a way to begin an album. As it's been said before, one of the strongest openers of the past decade.
Coldplay at their best

This is by far the best song Coldplay ever put out.
One of the strongest openings tracks from the last decade. In my opinion the bridge and ending of this song is the best piece of music Coldplay has ever made. So powerful, just complete trance.
My personal favorite Coldplay song
A powerful opening track which shows you that Coldplay means business
really cool and original coldplay song
