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 91.0/100, a mean average of 90.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.5.

love the solo
This is my favorite song on the album
afrobeat lifted straight from Zombie by Fela kuti surely!
Very funk. Great bass line. Weird synthesiser solo.
TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS
it has a frickin computer solo!
A brilliant song, with a kind of intense, frantic energy.
This is one of my favourites Talking Heads songs, but am I the only one who hears something wrong around 5:20, right after the lyrics "Don't you miss it, don't you miss it"? As if the loops suddenly interrupt one another or something like that. I can't help getting distracted by it since I noticed it.
I have listened to this album over and over for the last couple days. It is just so great. This song is an excellent way to start off such a great album.
i can't sit down!!
