Well, considering the fact that most songs here always have a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 10, it's impressive that this song, after 272 total ratings, still has a minumum of 2.
Nevertheless, I hope Bill implements a little histogram some day, which shows how the distribution of the votes is. That's way more useful than the min/max indicator

My geek-heart is happy... SPSS, anyone?

I'm ashamed to have to admit I didn't know this was Ray's :)
It's a classical song. Maybe even an evergreen. I like it.
It's got a '9' as avarage rating. Even with a lot of votes.
I'm quite surprised to see that here on RP for a song like this, with so many people nagging about the ol' stuff being bad. Well this is yet another song that ol' songs are pretty good

Images of The Dream Team with Peter Boyle, Michael Keaton, Christopher Lloyd, and Stephen Furst...

One of the best from Ray.
