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 has a Bayesian average rating of 66.0/100, a mean average of 63.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 17.8.

For me, the album ends on a high note. A dreamy ditty that could almost be classed as 'midnight music. Keith sings this reflective number and there are some really nice backing vocals too. If not the best track on the album, then certainly the second best, for me.
A pleasant enough ballad, but it's so sloppily played, especially Ronnie Wood on drums and again those drums are way too high in the mix. An okay ballad. (Edited)
