As I imagined it would be, the Monday after Governors Ball has been an especially brutal one. Sure, I'm fatigued following my three-day-long party and it's the beginning of the work week, but what's worse is the live music withdrawal. Going back to real life after breathing the same air as Outkast, Jack White, Disclosure, The Strokes, James Blake, Vampire Weekend, and more is decidedly rough.

To cope, I've put together a 20-track playlist of some of my favorite songs that I head this weekend. From Outkast's "Hey Ya," to White's stirring new track, "Lazaretto," you (and I) can relive the magic vicariously throught this set. Listen, below, and be sure to subscribe to the Marie Claire's Spotify profile for our weekly playlists:
