Congratulations to I AM on winning the 2026 IVE Songs March Madness Tournament, defeating After LIKE in the final 432-192!
For the last few weeks, DIVE have been voting for their favourite IVE songs in bigger numbers than I'd have ever dreamed of, so thank you all for taking part!
I might do it again next year, it'll be different seeding for sure based on this tournament, and with some new songs thrown in. Will DIVE tastes change in the space of a year? That's not to worry about right now, as I AM takes its space on the BIG BIG STAGE for ONE SHINING MOMENT. Thanks everyone!

I think next year it might be more interesting to separate Title Tracks / Singles and B-sides in two brackets, as the promoted tracks almost always were winning by a margin
I think it was pretty obvious once it overtook love dive. Would love to do this again but with bsides
It had to be After Like being runner up and I Am as the winner in the end. Both so iconic. Thanks for doing this bracket it was fun!
Can’t spell **Mi**chig**a**n without I-A-M, I suppose!
If it was beloved enough to beat LOVE DIVE, there should’ve been no doubt it was running the table tbh.
Thanks to the OP for posting the matches, running the tournament, and coming up with the great idea in the first place.
Congrats to I Am, a special song to so many of us.
The seeding worked out quite well in that I Am had to face all the super-famous contenders (Love Dive, Eleven, After Like) and proved itself worthy against each one of them.
The idea of a b-sides tournament is a good one. If someone puts it together, I’ll be there to vote, heh.
