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 85.1/100, a mean average of 84.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.6.

My favorite song on the album. Couldn't ask for anything better. Somehow it gives me a feeling of Hopelessness and Hopefulness at the same time.

Can they do a bad song for the first part?

To be honest, I am biased that it is the credits song to one of my favorite films (The Place Beyond the Pines), but this is the clear winner on this album besides Skinny Love and/or For Emma.

My least favorite track on the album, and still in my top 50 all time most played songs. That should say enough about the quality of this album, and this song.
