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 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.2.

Simple but effective.
Great track :)
Another decent George Harrison contribution to the album. Lovely sounds from that Rickenbacker guitar, and although it's not one of the best songs from Rubber soul, it still shows that Harrison's songwriting was certainly improving with each album. Good song.
nice
The first truly great George's song. He wrote some better ones, but this is where it really started.
Super cool guitar lick and great driving acoustic guitar that keeps the song snappy. The way the vocals build in harmony is a nice addition. A nice guitar solo with a ton of Byrds influence.
Agreed! Great melody, and great harmonies as well. And the guitar riff is tasty as well.
Great melody.
