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 has a Bayesian average rating of 70.5/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 18.3.

For me this is the only track I have a hard time appreciating in this album. That doesn't make it bad, but I think this song is subpar to the rest of this great album.
One of Freddie Mercury's greatest songs. A lustful four minutes of carnal desire, brilliantly done, it sounds like nothing else. It really captures that early eighties pre-AIDS hedonism of the seedier and sleazier parts of New York. Looking at the video, I don't think the other members of Queen were too impressed though.
