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 89.1/100, a mean average of 87.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.5.

I truly think this is the best song on this album. At least the best produced song on the album. Some could knock the "non-chorus" but it's Jonny's Chorus not Thom's. Such great lyrics and guitar work is out of this world.
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
Another great song, it's always great when a band can throw together an album like this.
Radiohead back at it again with a really innovative track!
One of the 8 songs on OK Computer that deserve a 100/100. The guitars are amazing. The synthesizers are superb. Tom Yorke is so emotional.
Definitely my favorite from OK Computer, it's atmospheric and kinda foreshadows Kid A.
Ethereal and spaced out, with the outro being my favorite part for some reason!
The guitar textures are extraordinary.
The intro and outro arpeges are mindblowing.
Spacey guitars and icy instrumentation really accentuate the feelings of loneliness and disillusionment on this track.
All the over dubbed guitars are so amazing! So many spaced out guitars!
