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 91.7/100, a mean average of 90.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.5.

I miss when Rivers would write songs about his life, the good parts, and the bad parts, making a song personal automatically increased the quality
Such a powerful song, Weezer's best.
How much do I like this song?
I played it twice on the day my parents died, I was robbed and I broke with my girlfriend.
I don't regret
Tied with El Scorcho as Weezer's best.
An amazing song. This is the song everyone loves Weezer for. It's heartbreakingly beautiful in a perfectly 90s way. Say It Ain't So is a song everyone should listen to, for many it's Weezer at their best and I certainly applaud the aggression Rivers Cuomo puts into both the composition and lyrics of this amazing song.
One of their best songs
