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 88.0/100, a mean average of 87.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.1.

it's not bad, but it's definitely my least favorite on the album. A bit repetitive and not a huge fan of the melody. Plus it comes in between Reckoner and Jigsaw, two of my favorite Radiohead songs.

I think this is one of the album's best songs. The chord progression is so beautiful, and even though it's a pretty repetitive song, it's okay because it's so nice.
I don't really like this song, but I dunno why. Maybe it's because it comes before Jigsaw so I can't wait till it ends, but it's a low point in the album in my opinion
