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)

Frank Sinatra always said this was his favourite Lennon and McCartney song, but of course, as we all know, it was written by George Harrison. Finally after seven years George becomes a songwriting equal of John and Paul with this absolutely gorgeous track. It's certainly one of Harrison's greatest ever songs and is a wonderful addition to the Abbey road album. Just about perfect. (Edited)
Great song, second fav Harrison after 'While my Guitar...' (Edited)
Really great song, but not quite on the same level as other songs worthy of 100/100
As John said, this is my favorite track on the album and the one that can give me goosebumps sometimes when I listen to it because of its sublime and genuine beauty. In many ways, it defines the allusive beauty and spirituality of love ideally. Here Comes the Sun compliments it wonderfully for two of George's best songs . Rest in Peace George and John (Edited)
Very, very bad, but at least it's not "Come Together". That's the only praise I could give it, though. The worst 1-2 punch in all of music? Probably. (Edited)
