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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 84.1/100, a mean average of 83.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.1.

Eddie and Alex Van Halen at the absolute apex of their instrumental prowess.
Also, the end of this song features one of my favorite “set ‘em up, knock ‘em down” finales ever.
I used to not like this song. BOY, WAS I NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

Dat intro!! Just one of the most fun songs I've ever heard.

Maybe the best Van Halen song. "I don't feel tardy".....
