Friends of the late Friends star Matthew Perry have revealed the Hollywood star loved listening to the music of Enya.
The connection is revealed in the Netflix documentary, The One About Matthew Perry, which has just been released.
Perry’s longtime friends Roger Castillo and David Pressman revealed how the actor loved playing Enya loudly while cruising down Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles County, California.
The Friends star had yet to achieve the huge heights of fame but was a struggling actor trying to make ends meet.

His friends revealed how he would drive a bright red Mazda Miata convertible. Perry would drop the top and blast Enya’s “Orinoco Flow” (Sail Away) from the car.
Perry would later use Enya’s music as part of the soundtrack to one of the show’s most infamous scenes featuring Perry’s character Chandler Bing.
In the Season 8 episode “The One Where Chandler Takes a Bath,” Monica sets up a relaxing bath for Chandler.
He reluctantly tries it, falls in love with the experience, and ends up soaking in the tub while Enya’s “Only Time” plays in the background.
