I wonder if they had gone with an instrumental version instead it would have been accepted much better. The visuals are totally Star Trek and exploration/innovation. 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.
