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 90.8/100, a mean average of 90.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.1.

The perfect pop moment.
The voice. The beat. The lyrics. The production! People will write songs for many many many years to come and I'll bet my socks only 2 or 3 will come anywhere close to Be My Baby. Perhaps the best choice for a first dance song at a wedding ever, if I do say so myself.

dum dum dum tss - reminds me of the Just Like Honey intro.
Anyway, I agree this sounds very Beach Boys-ish, definitely Pet Sounds-ish. I love The Ronettes!
Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys said this was his favourite song. It also inspired him to write "Don't Worry Baby", which is one of my favourite songs.
