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 87.9/100, a mean average of 87.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.0.

Damn Perfect. Love the strings by Paul Buckmaster. " made a ragpile of my shiny clothes gonna warm my bones, gonna warm my bones." Great line.
A great closer for a great album. Very beautiful and melancholic. Mick's vocals and lyrics are my favourite aspect of the track.

So goddamn goooooodie wooodie
This is the most under-rated song on the entire album. Just an absolutely beautiful and powerful song.

A very pleasant tune that makes an apt closer to this excellent album.
Probably their best song.
A kind of companion song to, sister morphine, this track goes for more of an epic feel and has a lovely stoned ambience about it. Keith didn't manage to make an appearance on this track(nor did he on, you gotta move) and so has refused to play it live ever since. Still, a superb way to end the album.
