I had no idea the hate for this song when I first watched it around 2010, maybe saw episodes earlier but not a real watch. It wasn’t my jam but I thought it fit the theme well of humanity taking their first real leap into space exploration. Like it tied our older style with a classic sounding folk/light rock song sort of thing, before original and TNG. I was am into electronic music but know it wasn’t most people’s thing so their theme worked for the ‘first’ theme compared to a more musical score at the time, least in my mind trying to like the tune.
Also I’m pretty sure I preferred the first one over the others but it’s been so long I can’t recall for sure. It does get stuck in your head after watching enough for sure.
