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 85.0/100, a mean average of 84.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.1.

Good Lyrics, epic solo, and a bass with wonder rhythm

Not John, but quite good
John Frusciante is irreplaceable, but Josh Klinghoffer's guitar solo at the end is still pretty damn awesome.

Master Flea

Astonishingly catchy experimental rock and a great lyric by Anthony. In the top twenty, maybe even top ten?, of the band's best songs. They have many great songs. This is great.
