Rating metrics: Help 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 84.6/100, a mean average of 84.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.7.

Surprising choice of song for the opening track but wow does it work. The lyrics are concise but tell a complete story of a young guy being given the run around by his unfaithful girlfriend. John's vocals superb as usual - ably supported by really nice acoustic guitar. 2 minutes of pure pleasure. (Edited)

A lost gem. The first side of this album is really great. Second side mediocre.

Very passionate and somehow mature sounding opener, easily the key track off of a mostly otherwise disastrous LP.

An absolutely blistering track. It really starts the album with a bang. One of the greatest opening tracks on any Beatles album. Fantastic song. (Edited)

"I nearly died" nearly sounds too melodramatic, but as a whole this track is one of the best openers you could imagine. (Edited)
