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 8% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.1/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.2.

The time has a come
The clock is such a drag
All you who changed your stripes can wrap me in the flag.
Feel like this would've been a much better closer than Young Lion, it's really dark and beautiful and seemed like it would've been a much more fitting ending for an album this grand.

I certainly have egg on my face now. This track has grown on me like a tumor made of music and has become one of my favorite tracks on the album. Scary as hell (for a VW track) and deep enogh for Adele to roll in it, "Hudson" is one heckuva jam.

Ezra has said that the first three VW albums are a trilogy and the next album will go in a new direction. I sometimes wonder if this is that new direction.
