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 has a Bayesian average rating of 66.8/100, a mean average of 66.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 20.7.

8.5/10 Great start to the album.
Giving it top marks to help negate all the ridiculous low scoring.
Everyone, it's a lead-in track. An "INTRO". And it's only about 20 seconds long. It is not a crime against humanity. Rating it so low is just bringing this great album's average track rating down. And it isn't nothing either. The military drum beat it leads in with is the one for Apocalypse Please, leading into it seemlessly in a very short amount of time. It succeeds in what it was created to do. It isn't "filler". It fits the theme of the album.
Best song ever written
