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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.9/100, a mean average of 81.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.1.

Discordant cello, guitar feedback, harsh difficult emotional lyrics, belie the song title but all work together well to produce one of the 6 great songs on the album.

Thanks, Vanilla Sky, for bringing this song into my life.
Works perfectly in conjunction with Everybody Hurts and New Orleans Instrumental.

Really emotional song. Love the acoustic tone. Well done REM. Even the feedback on the song is enjoyable. The Velvet Underground couldn't even do feedback this tasteful.
