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 85.6/100, a mean average of 84.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.8.

Uma pancada de metal!
This is an amazing song. Brian Johnson's vocals are really good and suit the overall song. Angus Young and his brother as well Phil Rudd absolutely killing it.
It's a shame that people don't seem to regard this song as highly as "Hells Bells", "Back In Black", or "You Shook Me All Night Long".
The ending's the best part.

One of my favorite AC/DC tracks. My favorite part is the middle part that gets quiet and then picks back up. Phil Rudd's drumming there is absolutely genius in my opinion. Simple but effective.
A solid track, just over shadowed by a few better ones from the album.
