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 91.7/100, a mean average of 91.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.2.

At the tender age of 14, the Doors 'Lit My Fire' once and for all, from the very first time I heard this song played on a jukebox at out local teen hangout!
Exceptional Doors track. Still enjoyable inspite of being played to death.
With the exception of "Riders on the Storm", this is their greatest song.

Ainda hoje memorável.
Best song on the album

The only way to justify your opinion that this isn't one of the best songs ever written would involve bribing me with several billion dollars.

A terribly addictive song with a lot of memorable moments

Definitely the song that convinced me that the Doors are an amazing band. That organ solo has become classic.

Cool song indeed, this is one of the few Doors-songs I like. Brilliant organ-playing, and overall pretty catchy.
Perfect for the style of the Doors.
