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 88.5/100, a mean average of 88.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.9.

I LOVE this one. probably my favorite on the album. I guess thats a cliche thing to say based on the ratings, but this track is amazing. I love the way they incoporated strings and brass, and the guitars seem to just like, wash over the track. It's like a good hot shower.
Wow, Metalica sing about love instead of the usual suicide, death, loneliness etc. Great track.

The devil's advocate in me wishes the guitar solo at the end was a bit longer, but this is still a classic Metallica song.
A truly beautiful song especially with the string arrangement. Very ballsy of them to put it on the album.
My favourite Metallica song.
Metallica wrote a beautiful ballad with good singing and good lyrics. The song could have used just a little bit of work to make it better, but it's still a very good song.
One of Metallica's softest songs. Definitely the ballad that no one ever expected to hear Metallica write. However, it's an excellent song with a great guitar solo and some of Hetfield's most emotional vocal performances.
