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 90.5/100, a mean average of 89.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.8.

Great Rock & Roll song which is probably one of the most recognizable songs all time.

Aquele riff que deu certo!

Well I'm not gonna lie, this is a showcase of:
1) One of the best riffs ever
2) One of the best guitar solos ever
3) One of the best guitar outros ever.
Which probably means it qualifies to be one of the best songs ever.
where the fuck has this riff been all my life
The whole songs memorable! The riff, the story, the solos, everything! One of the great rock songs.
