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 92.2/100, a mean average of 91.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

You really Enjoy the Silence.
Man, what an atmosphere. I don't have a whole lot to say, it feels like album really nails its sound from this song. It's very well produced, and I love the layering as the song goes. It's very good and stuff.
Undeniable classic
provides a great bookend to the 80s (along with Don't You Want Me) when it comes to mainstream electronic music.
Arguably Depeche Mode's greatest song(although I would call it a tie with, personal Jesus), this brilliant track is a classic of it's kind. Atmospheric and unforgettable. Superb.
Great song and the arrangement is so perfect.
Precious, precious song!
Not a great fan of the band, but this is one of my favourite songs ever
Gahan's signing is amazing in this one
Pretty catchy. What really got my favor is the vocals.
