Rating metrics: Help 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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.7/100, a mean average of 85.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.1.

Man I wish they'd change that "even on a cloudy day" part somehow... Sounds so... corny.
Apart from that it's a wonderful song, love the guitar work. That 15 second segment between 2:15 in the video (which is also great) and before "even on a cloudy day" (ugh..) is something made in heaven

Best single of 2011 so far. I adore this song. It sounds like it belongs on a Neutral Milk Hotel album.
