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 89.0/100, a mean average of 87.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.3.

Okay lets set the record straight about what this song is about from the lady herself Mrs John Murphy
"Sex between a black man and a white woman in the 50's when it was taboo"
Boom !
Best lyric: " What a big blackness what a hunk of love"
Kim Deal is fantastic
Cracking track, 100/100
All hail Kim Deal!
Kim rules
One of the best basslines in rock. I think I listened to this for a half-hour to an hour straight one time.
Really awesome woman chorus, guitars and lyrics are the best
Decent
This is Kim's song. It's also one of the more accessible on the album.
Great song by Kim.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
