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 87.0/100, a mean average of 86.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.2.

A great song, but for some reason I find this a tad long, Catchy tune a great song for the live shows

The piano work on this song is absolutely killer
My usernamesake. I love this song, one of the first of Elton's that really caught me. I walk around singing Bennie all the time.
I used to mishear these lyrics like crazy.
Very catchy, and just strange all over. Proof that Elton John is gay, really.
