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 83.7/100, a mean average of 83.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.6.

This comes in wonderfully from track one and the initial part I could almost hear him singing with a French accent for some reason!?

"Moody," indeed. Slow blues meets orchestral, highlighted by Justin Hayward's sensual vocals.

The moment when he starts singing is such an uplift... can't believe this was made in 1967.

The very definition of "moody." Ray Thomas' voice is perfect for this song.
