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 5% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.1/100, a mean average of 79.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 18.5.

I was relieved that this song wasn't gonna be creepy. It's the happiest sounding track on the album! I warned Cooper not to creep me out, and he listened. Hehehe.
Plus, he includes a reference to The Ballad of Dwight Fry at the end!

Solid upbeat way to end this great concept album. I love how at the end you can hear a terrified person repeating over and over again "I gotta get out of here!"
