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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.8/100, a mean average of 80.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

Funny and so C&W. I great track and a breather between more rockier songs.

A genuine Stones classic! A brilliant bit of countrified satire that always puts a smile on my face.
One of my favourite tracks on the album. An absolutely hilarious track with a brilliant performance from Mick Jagger. Like Dear doctor on Beggar's banquet, the Rolling Stones do country with tounge firmly in cheek. Great fun.
