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 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.9/100, a mean average of 82.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.0.

Mick Ronson's riff on Bo Diddley is the best feature here. I like the Che Guevara reference. Bowie is singing in his early androgynous style! The only thing that ruins it for me are the annoying over the top backup vocals.

Powerful, driving riff and dramatic drumwork all add up to one of Bowie's most advanced glam rock tracks
Just as haunting a song over 40 years later
