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)

I do like this track, it's melancholy and the atmosphere it creates leads nicely into the rest of this part of the LP.
I love the album all the way through, and though this is a throwaway song on its own, it is beautiful in the orchestral 3rd side of the album. There is a great wash of strings somewhere in this song which is gorgeous, and the vocals are lovely.
a hommage to Vera Lynn and her famous 1939 song : "We'll Meet Again". Vera is in relation to the following song : "Bring The Boys Back Home"

I don´t care if you don´t care this song, I really care it
Didn't stick out at me. But that's the problem with double albums. The more a song not sticking out at you.

In theme with the rest of the album. Nothing notable though.
