I don't know of any hate towards it, but maybe I have missed something. As for me personally, I do like it to some extent, but I think it is rather overblown. And then there are the theatrical voices in some parts of the song which I find quite irritating.

where did you get the idea that everyone hates the song? Some people dislike it. In the interview for the reissue of SETB, even Rutherford and Banks complained about it. But in other interviews they were proud of their 80s work, so what do I know?!

Not everybody does hate it. Many people like it, hence the very high reviews on average for the album as a whole. However, to compare it as a mini Supper’s Ready is taking the love a tad too far, methinks

I don't understand this hatred, for me it sounds like a tiny Supper's Ready, so what's the deal?
