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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 83.7/100, a mean average of 83.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.6.

This song has always struck me as such a unique closer, and especially so on an album with acclaim on the level of Blue. It’s not a mainstream hit, it doesn’t even have much of a hook to send the listener out on and I think that works for, once again, this album in particular.

We were mostly all way too young for a song this old, and the stress of understanding what we had not yet been through ourselves through her lyrics was intense.

This is my favourite on the whole album, I have no idea how it's one of the lowest rated tracks on it.
