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 91.0/100, a mean average of 90.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.6.

Guys do not miss their 2006 live version of this song (which appears on the live album "Arriving somewhere"...).
Simply perfect. Without doubt my favourite song of this century.
Beautiful. Perfect.
Legendary. Porcupine Tree in 10 minutes.

That guitar solo is WOW alone. Great, great song. Off the charts. Overdelivers on pure perfection from start to end.
