The sudden death of Matthew Perry at the age of 54 continues to leave us with devastating and emotionally charged moments in recent days. A week after his death, various stars and cast members of “Friends” gathered in a private ceremony at the Forest Lawn Memorial Park cemetery to say their last goodbye to the late actor.
There is no doubt that Perry’s departure has left the entertainment world shaken. After confirming that a rehabilitation entity will bear the actor’s name, his closest friends and relatives decided to say goodbye to the “Friends” star in what was a private meeting and without the presence of paparazzi or the press.
Among those attending the event, the presence of several “Friends” actors such as Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer, among others, stood out. According to the Daily Mail version, the first to arrive at the cemetery was Brad Pitt’s ex-wife, thus demonstrating her unconditional friendship with Perry.

This display of fraternity on the part of the American television megastars not only makes clear the great pain they are going through as a cast, but also demonstrates the closeness that each of the actors had during all these years. “We are completely devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than co-stars. We are a family,” read the collaborative text that the actors published in People days after learning of Matthew Perry’s death.
AN EMOTIONAL MOMENT: WHY DID YOU LISTEN TO “DON’T GIVE UP BY PETER GABRIEL DURING GOODBYE TO MATTHEW PERRY?
According to different media portals, everyone present at the funeral honored the memory of the actor through tears and some laughter in between. A witness told Daily Mail that none of the attendees managed to remain without shedding a tear, as the moment could have completely broken them.
Such a gesture shows the union between Perry and the rest of the “Friends” cast, despite the fact that the actor had been dealing with personal problems that kept him away from acting for many years. For this reason, the funeral of the beloved Chandler had a background song that has not gone unnoticed by the press or followers: “Don’t Give Up”, by Peter Gabriel.

But why did they use this single to say goodbye to who Matthew Perry was in life? The answer is simple: he was one of the “Friends” actor’s favorites.
As seen in dialogue with Tom Power at the end of 2022, Julia Roberts’ ex-boyfriend explained that this single had a very special meaning in his heart, he even dared to reveal that that would be the song he would like to use in his memoirs .
“They’re saying ‘Don’t give up.’ I mean, how can I not like that? The music video was just them hugging and the camera panned until the song ended. I loved it. When I sign my book I always say ‘Don’t give up’, because you shouldn’t give up,” Perry said almost a year before his death.
Considering the song’s message of resilience, it is clear that Perry was a great fighter in life, whether against his addictions, depressive stages or more. “They taught me to fight, they taught me to win, I never thought I would fail,” says part of the Peter Gabriel song.
Now, the song also has the voice of Kate Bush, who curiously adds the following: “Don’t give up because you have friends. Don’t give up, you’re not defeated yet. Don’t give up, I know you can do it well.” A message of effort that, curiously, would be for the friends of Chandler’s interpreter who were present at the funeral.
