I once heard that when assembling an album you do not want to put the big hit first, because it shows you do not have confidence in the rest of the record. Barenaked Ladies start out with One Week, the biggest hit from the record, but I enjoyed most of the album. BNL vary up they styles and their ballads are always very strong, One Week is grating only because of it's overexposure, but overall right when you are about to check out another track grabs your attention. Also, my favorite comedy podcast, COMEDY BANG BANG, uses "It's BEEN" as a repeated joke.
