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 86.0/100, a mean average of 85.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.7.

Agressive song that in combination with the title and lyrics kinda sounds like sexual frustation.
I love how aggressive, yet fun they were. This is a perfect example

Wow, what a rush!! Freaking awesome song!!
My favorite track in Nevermind
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
The worst lyrics on the album are saved by super sweet drumming, jamming instruments, and amazing production!
I also like the line "We can plant a house. We can build a tree." One of the few Nirvana lines I like.
Sweeet
It may not be a well written song, but the drum intro is freaking killer!
