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 90.9/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

Solid track. I love the string arrangement and skeletal beat. It's a total red herring when it comes to the rest of the album (which is far more romantic and melancholic as well as far less political) but still a good way to kick things off.

Love the strings and the airbag throwback bassline.

The strings are perfect. My only complaint is that it feels higher energy than the rest of the album, but as the opening track it works perfectly to catch your attention and hold it through the duration of AMSP.

Col legno.

What's so interesting about this song is that even though it's effectively quite straightforward as a track; three minutes long, verse chorus verse, it's still nothing like anything I've ever heard before.
