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 91.5/100, a mean average of 91.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.1.

This is a superb song and shows what can be delivered with orchestration on a pop tune - the bass and drums as we go into the first instrumental combine wonderfully with the flute and then get lifted by the strings coming in. I also think the backing vocals just help lift the haunting aspect of it all. Wonderful. Wonderful.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? An all-time classic. Perfect melody, perfect lyrics, perfect vocals. One of the most gorgeous songs ever written.

This fantastic piece is the best possible epilogue for an album that is a milestone in the 20th century music.

Absolutely unbelievable song, especially coming from a songwriter so young. Incredible vocal delivery by Justin Hayward as well. Sometimes I could swear the man has a third lung!
