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 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.6/100, a mean average of 82.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

This is where Bruce goes punk.
Hard rockin’ track from the start with that phenomenal guitar shredding from the outset. Driven by a heavy drumbeat and a riff played simultaneously by the guitars, bass, piano, and organ this is an irresistibly driven track. It cannot be ignored
The first time I heard this it blew my mind and it still does every time I hear it.
Some of the best shredding of Bruce's career, both on the guitar and on his vocals. All laid overtop that slick piano line. Definitely underrated.
SOMEBODY'S ON FIRE, AND I KNOW WHO IS.
Bruce rocks so hard on this song!
