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 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 89.9/100, a mean average of 89.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.0.

This is pinnacle 'Rush' for me. 2112 is up there with their best epics. I love every minute of it. It feels like a journey and it's proggy as heck.

They are MUSICIANS here. This has even guitar solos. :)
From the opening seconds, with the chilling sci-fi sounds emanating from and an ARP Odyssey synthesizer, leading into a 4 minute long intro (overture - covering themes and motifs of the sections to follow), you just know you're in for something special in this Side A of the Album (20 minute long track). Incredible musicianship, great sounds and hooks, awesome tune and a intriguing story/lyrics (it works for me!) allowing some real showcasing of Geddy's vocals - I very much like the contrasts he gets in "Presentation" between the lyrical (of The Protaganist) and the menacing screaming (of the Priest, Father Brown)

Great song,a whole experience in one single track

The word "epic" is a massive understatement. This is a mini-rock opera and far better than any of the other overblown examples of the genre.
Wow
