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 88.6/100, a mean average of 87.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.2.

Great harmony.
I love the harmonies on this song. According to Wiki, Lennon was dismissive of the song thinking of it as a “throw away”. I really rather like it but what do I know? Another article referred to a similarity with the Byrds, which I think that there certainly is.
Overall, a good track

Tucked between a bunch of other brilliant and legendary tracks about three quarters of the way through Revolver, there sits And Your Bird Can Sing.
This is not only one of my favorite songs on the album, but one of my very favorite Beatles songs period. Arguably one of the more straight forward tracks and one most driven by “normal” instrumentation on Revolver, I think that’s part of its greatness. In the middle of all this experimentation lies this amazing little pop rock gem yet it doesn’t sound out of place one iota.
Seriously one of the album’s best cuts. I adore the third verse harmony.
Undoubtedly the most underated Beatles song of all.
Great melody and guitar
Love the dual-guitar and vocal harmonies on this! One of the best on the album :)
One of John Lennon's best song from Revolver, with, I'm only sleeping, and, tomorrow never knows. Apparently the song is about Frank Sinatra who had recently made some derogatory comments about the Beatles, and I assume the title is a reference to Sinatra's daughter Nancy? Maybe, maybe not? Still it's a stunning song, one of the few rockers on the record.
Brilliant song - awesome guitar work throughout - one of their most advanced and technically challenging guitar riffs written in my opinion.

I just find this song so adorable. I think it's the harmonies when they go sing the title. I love it!

Frequently overlooked. Great melody and that unforgettable guitar duel between Harrison and McCartney.
Those harmonies are magical.
