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)

Comfortably Numb has nothing on Time. This is David Gilmour’s true best guitar solo. The lyrics to this song are absolutely brilliant and true, making it a rather terrifying song. The ambient and instrumental bit that opens the song is beautiful. However I wish the split this song and the Breathe (In The Air) reprise. Kinda almost makes me regret putting into playlists.

Music that makes you feel one with the universe around you. Lyrics that make you terrify you of the very same thing.

Surely some of the best lyrics of any song, you waste time when you are young and time passes slowly, then suddenly you're ten years older and time starts to fly and you haven't time to do the things you always wanted to do. Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. Then you catch religion and listen to the softly spoken magic spells, summoned by the iron bell.
Timeless.
Literally one of the best, if not, the best song of all time.
The outstanding track on the album.
