It took me a week to get rid of the song out of my head the last time someone brought it up!

What the hell does Mike Johnson have to do with your Friday?

Fun fact: there’s a king of queens episode, where Doug is actually singing this song.
It’s hilarious

I knew what to expect, so I only watched about 1 second of Rick Astley.

Toss up between VOY and DS9 for me (VOY catchier but a little more saccharin). TNG just a bit too…exuberant.
VOY fun to really ham it up on the piano though.

I liked it.
Kind of tried to tie the dream to the NASA age.
The viewers largely didn’t, and now Trek is very pretty to look at, and even arguably more fun, but doesn’t lean into conveying the message of human aspiration that kind of ended with Enterprise, and I miss that.

I wonder if they had gone with an instrumental version instead it it would have been accepted much better. Not exactly classical music, but it was having lyrics/established song from a popular singer that hit the wrong way. Ironic that the TOS theme had lyrics as well, although I don't think any episode that I recall ever played that version.

Those weren’t lyrics, they were a morally… dubious legal loophole

The original opening was supposed to be Archer’s Theme, the music played over the end credits.

I actually like it too! Though it does get stuck in your head! I agree, I like the concept of the opening sequence portraying human advancement and the desire to explore, facilitated by cooperation. (I thought SNW did a good job of capturing that feeling, among the new treks.)
