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 83.9/100, a mean average of 83.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.4.

As with every track on this incredible album, a masterpiece, though oddly lower rated. Should be rated far higher than 84/100

The sound goes with the lyrics
love that he sings "suddenly everything has changed" and then the music completely changes

Phenomenal song!

What a strange and captivating song. The changing time signatures, including free-time, plus the haunting production and varied instrumentation just oozes creativity. One of the Lip's best, but only once fully realized by the attentive music listener.
