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 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.8/100, a mean average of 82.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.3.

His greatest ever vocal. Amazing.
One of the best songs on the album. Originally written for the, darkness on the edge of town, album, this beautiful version for, the river, was one of Springsteen's most mature and moving songs to date. Still is, come to think of it.
The second in Springsteen's 'daddy' series. Pretty powerful stuff. The ballads on the River prove his musical/production/sonic abilities.
