Glastonbury Festival may be over for another year, but what a weekend of memorable performances it was.

We've rounded up six of our favourite sets from across Worthy Farm and listed them in no particular order below.

1. The Chemical Brothers

It marked the fifth headline show of their career at the festival, so The Chemical Brothers are well versed when it comes to Glastonbury - and that experience was more than obvious from the opening bars of 'Hey Boy Hey Girl'. Despite one half of the duo, Ed Simons, taking a break for their current run of live shows, Tom Rowlands was joined by Adam Smith for the electrifying spectacle.

We all know by now that The Chemical Brothers have some serious anthems - 'Do It Again' is an underrated classic, 'Galvanise' was greeted by a choir of crackling red flares in the crowd, while 'Block Rockin' Beats' was the perfect finale - but here the duo's live offering has been refreshed by Smith's immersive visuals. For new single 'Go' there were shining roller skater dancers that looked like the cast of Starlight Express had been transported into a Tron grid; then towards the end of the set, tin toy robots descended from the rafters to lip sync along; while psychedelic visuals throughout included cameos from Benedict Wong and Liam Walpole.

The final result was a thrilling, powerful and enraptured stage show that breathed even more life into The Chemical Brothers' biggest bangers, and the crowd more than showed their gratitude for it.

2. Lionel Richie

"It's been a long time coming but I finally made it to Glastonbury," Lionel beamed as he walked out onto the Pyramid Stage for the beloved Sunday afternoon legends slot, which itself is becoming a bit of an institution. The 100,000-plus crowd were eager to show their admiration, and in true golden performer tradition, Lionel gave them good reason to. A storming start of 'Running with the Night' was gloriously '80s with thrust-worthy synths and Lionel's guitarist giving it that extra charge of power anthem voltage.

But where Lionel really enchanted the crowd, he did so with his slower numbers. The Motown superstar looked genuinely stunned with the singback on 'Three Times a Lady', while 'Say You Say Me' was lifted even higher by a chorus of hungover croaks across the field. Glastonbury made Lionel work hard, but he was more than willing to step up to the occasion (boy that man can sweat!). An extended rendition of 'Dancing on the Ceiling' instantly cemented itself as a festival highlight, with Lionel's backing band in tight formation and perfectly rehearsed for maximum impact.

Rounding it off with 'Hello', 'All Night Long' and 'We Are the World' made up for the mid-set lag, and concluded Lionel's Glastonbury debut on a spectacular high. It may have taken him decades to make it to Worthy Farm, but many will agree it was certainly worth the wait.

3. FKA twigs

While Jamie T was ripping through an incredible set on the Other Stage on Sunday evening, something other-worldly was going on across the field on the West Holts Stage. Adorned in gold, FKA twigs was literally bending over backwards for her audience... as well as demonically crawling across the stage, being hurled into the air and arousing every spectrum of emotion possible. "I can't recognise me," twigs sang glassy-eyed for the closing line of 'Video Girl', making it clear that tonight ran far deeper than a 'performance'. Rather, it was a genuine outpouring of the experiences and stories that shape the singer's music.

With the help of an all-male dance troupe, twigs pieced together an intense, hour-long story, from the sensual to the frantic and the desperate. She and her dancers journeyed from vogueing to carnal ruin, all the while her music sounding as mesmerising and as new as ever. FKA twigs seized her Glastonbury slot as a means of showing that when it comes to style and substance, she has bounds of each.

4. Mary J Blige

Among the fresh British rock bands and NME familiars, there was a surprising name on this year's line-up, and that was Mary J Blige. The US superstar isn't one you'd expect to see on an afternoon stage at a music festival, but even though it rained, no poured, during her set, the crowd's reaction and her passionate performance made the booking a complete no-brainer.

While Mary J Blige doesn't have the kind of musical ubiquity in the UK as she does in her homeland, she's an act with a back catalogue that you definitely recognise more about than you realise. Take opening number 'Just Fine' for instance; a bouncy pop bop that had people across the Pyramid Stage gasping "I love this song!" Then there's 'Love Is All We Need'; a slick R&B number that had the crowd sidestepping and clicking along. But not only that, there was a real sense that, despite her 23 years in the industry so far, Mary J Blige was truly honoured to be playing Glastonbury.

You had to look little further than her sublime performance of 'No More Drama' to prove it, too. Blige nailed the rendition with her gutsy, passionate vocal, falling to the floor and really taking a performance and turning it into a moment. She understood that to fill the Pyramid Stage you need enough power and intensity to keep a crowd transfixed. Mary had both in abundance and no-one was looking away. Followed by U2 cover 'One' and classic anthem 'Family Affair', she made the crowd forget that they were all slowly sinking into fresh mud by making such a solid first impression on Glastonbury.

5. Wolf Alice's secret set

Getting anywhere close to Williams Green on Thursday evening wasn't a job for the fainthearted. An aptitude for sharp elbows and dealing with the anonymous sweat of others was a must. It could only have meant one thing, a secret set was brewing. Those lucky enough to contort themselves into the tent were treated to crushing back to back sets from two of the best live bands around: Drenge and Wolf Alice. The former delivered a classic Drenge show of deafening magnitude, but it was Wolf Alice's rattling performance that set bands an unfair benchmark for the remainder of Glastonbury.

Shrieking and harmonising their way through a 45-minute set, the band proved exactly why they've been one of 2015's biggest breakthrough acts. With the upheaval of 'Fluffy' sprouting guerrilla moshpits from the off, the band delivered a performance that left no doubt about the fact that give it a few years, they'll be headlining. In a riotous finale, Eoin of Drenge joined Wolf Alice for 'Moaning Lisa Smile' - cue fainting members of the audience being crowdsurfed out. It might have arrived before all the official action kicked off, but Wolf Alice undoubtedly provided one of the best sets of the entire weekend.

6. The Libertines

When it turned out even Dave Grohl couldn't perform a two and a half hour set with a broken leg, Friday night at Glastonbury was thrust back into a scrum of rumours. After Florence + The Machine were bumped up to headliners, talk moved to everything from a secret acoustic Foo Fighters set to a last-minute intervention from Blur. Instead, The Libertines flew in by helicopter to settle unfinished business that had been lingering for over a decade. After pulling out of their Pyramid Stage slot and splitting up soon after in 2004, the band's surprise slot was long overdue.

In true Libertines style, it was a shambolic affair with Pete and Carl making up the set on a song-by-song basis. While the band regrouped to headline Reading & Leeds in 2010, it felt different this time round. With a new album on the way and Pete looking the best he has for years, The Libertines were back with their inextinguishable bond - but this time it wasn't laden down with the acrimony that led to their demise the first time round. From the delicate romance of 'You're My Waterloo' to the raucous mic-sharing of 'What a Waster' and 'Don't Look Back into The Sun', The Libertines' secret set was one that will go down in Glastonbury history as well as the ever-evolving history of The Libertines.
