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 is one of only a few songs that made me kinda cry, not like full one cry but more like I got a bit misty in my eyes or something along those lines. Really good song, best of the 90s (Edited)

wow. what a song. absolutely beautiful. my favourite song from the album and it closes the album perfectly.
This track is actually really gorgeous. I was pleasantly surprised by this, but it's a really nice way to close the album. (Edited)
Possibly the greatest song ever written in all honesty and a perfect closer. The 3/4 time signature gives it a sense of uneasiness and that visceral emotion felt through Mangum's lyrics and vocal performance are the absolute height of song writing. (Edited)
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies (Edited)
