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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.6/100, a mean average of 84.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.7.

A decent song with a good groove.
Stellar. The lyrics, the guitar, the bass, everything about it. One of those songs that I can't imagine anyone not getting a kick out of. And the performance of this at Live 8 was inspired. 100/100
Perfect lyrics, perfect song. Love it

it was good to open up to this coming off the disappointing Pop. great song!
Not a U2 fan, but this song is great on many levels. It's got a great message, it's got exciting buildup and is just a fun song
just a kickass pop song
You don't get many artists that can produce one of their greatest songs 20 years into their recording career.
