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 88.7/100, a mean average of 87.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.3.

One of the best guitar riffs ever.
Fácilmente debe estar en el top 10 de las mejores canciones del año.

pride is the sunday bloody sunday of the unforgettable fire, though much, much easier to play on guitar - disappointingly so if you don't have a decent delay pedal. hard not to love this track for a hundred reasons.
I love the chorus!
One of their best songs

A much better song than the ratings indicate. U2 was exceptional at this point, and all the hate in the world for Bono won't change that.
