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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 89.9/100, a mean average of 88.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.9.

Even after all these years, this is still my favourite Coldplay song.
Chris Martin's vocals are key. Good emotional song.

A modern day classic
Really beautiful and well-orchestrated track in terms of how the song is built up...

Fantastic, realistic and yearning lyrics combined with a soulful, beautifully depressing piano riff and a tumultus finish. It's an achingly brilliant song.
Beautiful track
