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 91.5/100, a mean average of 90.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.1.

Mick Jones's vocals were amazing here.

Perfection!
Brilliant closing track!
Just a fantastic song
Likely my favourite track on the album. Heck, it is one of my favourite songs. It is just so deliciously catchy with just enough of the Clash's punk roots to keep it fresh. Truly, an amazing song.
Great song!

Haha! Never thought of it as gospel punk, but a great way to put it. The most festive track on an already quite festive album!
Great hidden track!

Love it. I feel like I'm a member at the Church of Clash. This is gospel punk music.
