I'd argue that 10/10 is literally impossible, and I think that people underestimate how amazing, say, 8/10 is: there is a well known fallacy wherein people vote from 7-10 instead of from 1-10. I've seen a few posters say things like 'it's solid but not amazing' and then give it a 9, a huge mismatch. That language suggests a 7 or so IMO.

Like I said Starman is a great song. It is like a 14/10 which is being added to any two songs on the album that are 8/10 so all three songs together end up averaging out as 10/10. So the album as a whole is 10/10. It is about the Law of Averages.
