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 7% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.2/100, a mean average of 80.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.0.

Best song on the album. The riff, the interlude, the guitar playing, the chorus...it's all just epic.

Great closer to the legendary first album. Probably the greatest vocal on the album. The cohesion between the band members is off the charts here.

Holy crap!! Eddie Van Halen reminds me so much of one of my favorite guitar players on this song (not that Eddie is too far down my list). That guitar player would be Michael Schenker! For that reason alone I love this song. Also a very energetic way to close this badass album.
