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)

Lifeson elevates this with that guitar.
Played by any other group, this track would be bland. Rush elevates it to be a good closer of the album.
Excellent, unique song. I love the transition from the stuttery reggae rhythm of the verse into more groovy resolution of the chorus.
A fine ending to Moving Pictures, but not as good as the first 5 tracks from the album. Rush does show a bit more of what their next few albums would sound like with the use of keys as well as reggae-esq percussion and riffing.
A fitting vision of the future. Better live.
