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 4% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 81.7/100, a mean average of 79.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 18.7.

One of their better tracks but it's a basic formula.
Bon Jovi's vocal performance on this song is great. My least favourite song out of the three main singles, but solid catch stuff. Drum beat is near identical to the one of Prayer though.

Guy can sing. Kid of a dumb song, though.
"Whoa-oh-oh, there's nowhere to run."
The most bad-a song Bon Jovi has done.
