n = number of ratings an item has currently received.
m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

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 86.6/100, a mean average of 85.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.9.

I have no interest in the message behind this song, which apparently regards the LGBT community. Completely detached from that, musically, it is pretty incredible. I'm disappointed that it is even connected to that cause, since I assumed it was just about the human condition *generally speaking* and not a specific group. Regardless, the sonic experience is tremendous and a sub-90 rating for this song is shameful.
Favourite from this album, the title track is also good tho

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
