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 92.3/100, a mean average of 91.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.7.

Quite simply, a song for the ages. It’s already proven that. How can you not be overcome by the groove of this song or the quirky but jaw-dropping, layered clav and horn arrangements. How about the vocal performance?
A+ class. All of it.
This song simply cannot be overrated!
One of the best songs ever recorded. No doubt about it.
An absolute classic, and one of the most iconic soul / funk songs ever.

This song was originally going to be used by Jeff Beck but he decided not to record it.
