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 85.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.1.

My favorite by Dylan
Dylan is lyrically at the top of his game again on this superb track. Yes, Mark Knopfler's production gives it an extremely commercial sheen but it doesn't take anything away from this great track. One of Dylan's best song's of the eighties.

It's a classic opening track, loved it from the first time I heard it, but think the rest of the album falls a bit flat.
