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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 83.9/100, a mean average of 83.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.0.

Great bass work.
Love everything about this song
That bass is just so goddamn tasty!!
Groovy little number :)
George Harrison's best song up to this point. Not quite sure what the songs about but it's a fine track with some lovely fuzz bass from Paul McCartney. Not as great as, Michelle, the word, or, in my life, but still a very good track and it shows that Harrison was getting closer to the quality of Lennon-McCartney's songs.

Anyone hear the beginnings of reggae in this tune?
One of the most underrated Beatles songs. Love Paul's fuzzy bass.
The Beatles were really good with the psychedelic genre.

This is quite good. I like the funky sound of the distortion.
