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 88.7/100, a mean average of 88.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.3.

A superb song. Loved it instantly. Simple strumming and good vocal delivery. Production is excellent. Backing chorus is so rich and there. Bass strumming along. Violins a joy. I also absolutely love the drum towards the end of the track. I note that he wasn't happy with the addition of the drums by Producer John Simon but I love it.
ABBA is that you?

The women's choir is amazing. By far the standout on this album.

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 :(
