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 76.1/100, a mean average of 74.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

A bit different and it has grown on me.
Nothing wrong with this track.
Underrated gem. May sound horrible on first listen but it truly is one of Coldplay's best and sums up the album perfectly.
the amount of hate this track gets makes me wince a little
Psychadelic and a little heavy for coldplay, so while it isn't great, it is different and fits well in the album
Weakest track on the album but I still like it
not really a big fan of this
