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 83.8/100, a mean average of 83.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.9.

Amazing closing song, just the right one

A James Iha song to close the album with, vocals by Jimmy Billy and D'arcy.

Beautiful closer.
Great song

Pleasant goodnight featuring iha & d'arcy singing us out as well, but either this or "by starlight" could've been left off to ease the long nighttime passing.

That piano hook at the end tying the whole album together is brilliant. Gives me chills.
