Default soak-in time for songs you like

Most songs that I really love, I like them after hearing them for the 1st time and like them more and more every time I hear them.

Others (most), I find something catchy about them or good enough not to switch the radio station or whatever and over a few listens, I find myself humming along. For this category, I would say this happens over 5 or so listens.

It's rare, but once in a while, there's the song I outright dislike or I'm ambivalent about and I hear it over and over, or they're placed just right in some movie/commercial or something, and I'm turned into a believer.

How many listens usually does it take for you to become a fan of a song?
