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 84.3/100, a mean average of 84.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

It sounds like a pitty breakup song, which makes it even better.
This may have my favorite bass work by John Paul Jones.
It might seem like a stab at air-play, but I've always loved this song, even if its one of the lesser ones off its album.

One of my favourites. Seems odd at first, Zeppelin doing Reggae. But it definetly works.

Whenever I read D'Yer Maker I always wondered which Zep song that was, and whenever I heard this on the radio I always wondered what it was called (I dunno... Baby, Please Don't Go?) In any case, another favourite track on a great album. Plant and Page both in top creative form on this one.
Zeppelin can even do Reggae

SUPER underrated Zep song. They prove that they can play reggae just as well as anyone. In fact, this is the song that has gotten me to give reggae even a second look.
Zeppelin going Jamaican, mon!
