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 89.0/100, a mean average of 88.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.1.

Beautiful song instrumentally and lyrically, but maybe it goes on a bit too long
A beautiful, moody, and introspective track. This album version is one of three equally excellent recordings of this song.

Compelling beauty, lyrics are sublime, instrumentation is great, the guitar riffs are fabulous, this is truly a great start to a great discography.

Awesome intro, the drums of the start are incredible, the tired voice is incredible, and the rhythm stills amazing, actually an incredible start
