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 86.4/100, a mean average of 85.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

The chorus and background ooo's and ahh's give me chills every time I hear this song. An all time classic.
I used to love this song but since that princess Diana version I find it a really hard listen now. That version was so awful that it has almost completely ruined this song for me. I try to put it out of my mind but every time it starts all I can hear is, 'goodbye English rose'. This reaction, I must admit, is getting better and is not as bad as it used to be, but being one of those people who has to listen to an album from start to finish, I had a real problem listening to this LP for years. Maybe one day I won't think of it at all, but not yet, and so a song I used to love is now almost beyond any listening enjoyment for me. All i can say is thank God it wasn't, bohemian rhasody, like a rolling stone, or, thunder road.
Good, pretty song.
