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 86.2/100, a mean average of 85.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.3.

Billy Corgan could've worked on an opening for this album for a full decade, but he wouldn't made something better than this.

Is it wrong for this to be my second favourite track on the album?

This is Pumpkins warm up, just to prepare you for the real thing

One of the better instrumental intros I've heard
Really beautiful instrumental intro

Prepares you for the awesomeness of "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness".
Great intro

Pleasant piano-based intro track.
