Hi desertangel.
I think this can not be planned, achieved deliberately (I'm going to write a song that people dislikes at first but loves it from 12th listen). In my opinion what happens with certain songs is the following:

The author works a lot on a song, and takes it further and further. The direction of the song is changed, and then changed again. Finally, it arrives to a state where only the creator's mind is able to understand its internal logic. So, at first listens by someone outside, it just sounds weird and it's difficult to receive. Because it's not that much like similar songs he's liked in the past. With more listens, the knots are slowly undoing and the listener can approximate better to the place intended by the author.
