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 83.4/100, a mean average of 83.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.0.

Interesante mezcla de pop con progresivo y ese sonido que caracteriza a los años 80

Outstanding in every sense. The composition is excellent. Genesis show they can still produce music of epic proportions. It's my favourite on the record.
Well this certainly came out of left field. On an album filled to the brim with '80s pop, Domino is an excellent melding of pop and prog in the truest sense. As such, Domino probably has the best lyrics of any song on the album. Inspired by the 1982 Lebanon War, the first part (In the Glow of the Night) sets the scene of a fractured relationship during wartime, allowing the second part (The Last Domino) to burst through with vivid descriptions of human atrocities and the interconnection that everybody has to each other: you're just the next domino in line to fall. Despite this, the entire song marches along with a relatively upbeat tone, especially in the second half (the first half is more warm and subdued). Each member of the band gets a chance to shine. I don't think it quite reaches the same prog glory of old Genesis, but it feels that way in some parts, and it certainly deserves acclaim for mixing prog and '80s pop together in a convincing manner. Crazy to think an 11-minute story like this comes from the same album as pure pop sugar as Invisible Touch or Anything She Does.

Similar to Home By The Sea/Second Home By The Sea. An extended two part suite keeping in touch with their prog roots. The second half is stronger than the first half but they still work very well together.
