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 92.1/100, a mean average of 91.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.9.

Hail to the Thief is one of my least favorite Radiohead records, but "There, There" is probably inside my top songs from the band. There's an interview somewhere where Thom Yorke says that after he heard the finished version he started to cry, because he thought it was the best thing they had ever done. While I don't agree, I can understand it. It has such a raw energy. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, and for Radiohead, that's saying something.
This one has grown on me so much since I first heard it, and now I accept it's one of their best songs. A haunting and creepy sounding song. A masterpiece. "Just cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there" 100/100

By some margin, the best track on the album.

The build up of this song is amazing and the guitars sound so good.
The lyrics are above average but the instrumentals and pure groove of this track are phenomenal
This song did absolutely nothing for me on my initial listens. Idk when it happened (sadly sometime after I saw this live), but when this song clicked, it clicked hard. So incredibly addictive and powerful, I love this song.
WEEE ARRE AAAAAACCCIIDDEEENTSSS WAIIITTTIIING-OOWAAAITIING TO HAAAAAAAPPPENN!!!
Incredible, even for them. Top 5 Radiohead track.
100/100 is not enough justice. How could someone write anything like this?

this is some of Radiohead at its most savage
