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 8% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.5/100, a mean average of 78.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.3.

Dis-orientating. Suppose that makes it psychedelic status
just don't get it
Easily the worst song on the album and one of the worst ever by the Beatles. "Please don't be long.." and it is. Far far too long.

Underrated af
Yeah, not the best one in the album but it's not that bad. I think people criticise this song overmuch.
Very good song
Sounds like he's making it up as he goes along. Probably underrated in terms of originality but I think the end product succeeds in being weird more than anything else.
Coming after the absolutely brilliant Within you without you on, Sgt. Pepper, blue Jay way, comes a real disappointment. It's alright, with a nice unsettling atmosphere, but it's just a bit boring to be honest. A nice come down after the summer of love though.

It's a nice song, but it's too long.
starts off good but it's repetitiveness kills it
