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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.8/100, a mean average of 84.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.4.

I love the "well" part of this song. The "lighthouse" part is decent, but the first two minutes are where this song shines
I was right on the same page as Romanelli. I think I just fully appreciated the song fully the last time I listened to it. A serious grower
On an album with a lot of tracks that don't stand out too much, this is probably my second fave

This song is maybe one of the bests, by Arcade

Continuously growing on me. A strange song with a lot going on...very catchy.
