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 77.0/100, a mean average of 76.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.4.

I quite like this one, a bit under the radar but lost on Side 2. I like the vocals and the drumming once again.
A somewhat mystical lyric that touches some of the prog pieces as Home by the Sea, but not with as much sustained success. The stomping music of the verses, led by Collins' drums and Banks' piano, is quite wonderful, but the lyrics are kind of clunky, and the choruses are both repetitive and not as epic as they should be. Some great moments in here, but they don't last long enough. An average song.
