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)

A tad bit overrated in the ELP discography, but still a great song—Lake's always compelling vocals matched with beautiful harmonies, and some nice spots for the guitar to really shine, which is a bit of a rarity on this keyboard-dominated album. Nice way to leave the listener with a good taste in the mouth at album's end.
This is an okay pop song because of Greg's good vocals
