I've done this often, too - tracks like Holding the Moth and Faxed Invitation I loathed on first listen, but given a bit of time, repeat listens, and the context of the rest of the album, suddenly they made a lot more sense and I began to really enjoy them.

Don't know whether this'll happen for me and Good Day Today, though - lyrically, it's one of Underworld's weakest efforts; musically, it's bland and those vocoded vocals sound really, really off. I'm going to give it a few more listens, but my hopes are low. I'm really hoping the rest of the album has more of a 'Scribble' feel, as opposed to carrying the feel and themes of 'Good Day Today' across it...
