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 87.7/100, a mean average of 86.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.5.

Overplayed to death, but so does every major hit.
This hymn will live forever.

I like the intro, the chorus is very catchy.

Just a god damn undeniable chorus. Great lyrics and layers of captivating and emotionally charged instrumentation. One of my favorite pop songs of the modern era.
A little repetitive and over-the-top, but that's also true for their entire discography. This is probably their best song.

Just like Smells Like Teen Spirit, I used to think of this song as simply overplayed and overrated. But now it finally makes sense to me.
