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 92.3/100, a mean average of 91.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.6.

gotta give it few listens as always with those more subtle radiohead's track but i now understand why it's loved. same kind of track as how to disapear completely. A masterpiece i would say! so incredible that a band in their 50's can still produce such quality after all these years. music for people of good taste

Incredible track with a deep story behind it. Perfectly expresses Thom's feelings and thoughts. The beautiful piano arpeggios together with the muted bass and the strings arrangement create a unique harmony that just... works.
A truly beautiful and mesmerizing track, among Radiohead's best.
One of Radiohead's greatest songs and an instant classic. A really lovely swirl of nostalgic sounds that is at times spaciously simple and quite complex in others.
Might be my new favorite. I go back-and-forth between this and Let Down.
surprised! The beauty in the pianos and vocals is hart braking

The very end sounds like something from Tago Mago.

Beautiful and emotional. Classic Radiohead doing what they do best.
String arrangement is the star.
I'm beginning to wonder if this is my favourite song of the 2010s (thus far).
I did not like Burn the witch that much. Yeah it was great but it got old pretty quick. Daydreaming is one of the best songs of the 2010's. The simple but beautiful piano playing. And man The lyrics and strings are so damn Good.
