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 87.0/100, a mean average of 85.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.2.

When I saw the video of this song as a twenty year old in 1987, I went WOOOOOOW. The song doesn't has that effect on me now, but it's still good.

Perhaps a little safe, but it's one of those rock songs that just about everyone is guaranteed to like. Superb album opener too by my standards.

Some of the best guitar work on the 80s here. Very tasteful playing with an excellent solo and Axl's vocals are spot on. One for the ages.
The intro is fantastic and Axl maybe on his best ever recorded performance. Timeless rock classic!

The best glam metal song ever recorded. It was all downhill from here.
