Thoughts on We Love You?

Recorded as three of five Stones were facing drug charges and the real threat of potential prison time; and general persecution from the British establishment; the song was both a mockery of the system (sarcastically saying 'we love you') and also a thank you at the same time for the fans' whose support likely helped save them; and features John Lennon & Paul McCartney on backing vocals and featuring for the unusual (for the Stones) an sonic texture and arrangement.

My question, what are your opinions of it?

Mick Jagger as Oscar Wilde and Keith as the judge, it is epic.

The ending with Brian on Mellotron is some of his trippiest work.
