Rating metrics: Help 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)

McCartney's punchy rock'n'roll anthem, A Hard Day's Night and the 2 great ballads earlier in the album already make this their best album of the first three.

A great single. A rollicking foot tapping, finger snapping piece of rock'n'roll. Totally infectious in it's delivery and one of the strongest songs on the album. Excellent track.

One of only a few early (pre 65) Beatles songs that I can enjoy.
