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 84.6/100, a mean average of 84.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 10.3.

Good, jaunty pop song, though a little simplistic and not as well-performed as some of the other songs on this album. Does save some points for having really nice piano and guitar parts though.
When we're all in the crowd/And you catch her eye/
And then you both smile/I feel so good inside
It's interesting to interpret this song as a bitter response to a lonely man surrounded by relationships.
Probably my least favorite song on the album
