yes since semi finals at esc are 100% televote, so jury friendly songs are a risk nowadays if u first have to get past the semi
however those who did survive the semi, some went to do better in the final
Estonia 2023: Alika - Bridges (10th in semi, and did a top 10 in final i thought mainly thanks to a high jury score)
Latvia 2024: Dons - Hollow (scraped through in semi, and went on to do decently in the final with a good jury result)
wonder who of this years will have a similar fate then of barely qualifying and doing better in the final
