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 8% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.2/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.7.

Is this a Yo La Tengo song?
I really don't understand the criticism for this song. It's a great relaxing ending to the first disc, and in general this song is beautiful.
All calm and filled with a beautiful sound, It's really great
Worst song on here, but still great!
I like it
James Iha sings this one where "all i see is you". It's a nice little number by itself and doesn't seem out of place on the album, but IMO unnecessary in the grand scheme of the album. There's enough of a comedown in "muzzle" to segue well into the first track of the next disc.
