You meet a lot of people in New York who are different than you, and have different stories, so I see everyone as super individual.
Frankie CosmosI feel like I can be infinitely inspired because New York is huge. There's always a new street I can go to, or a billion new people who I haven't met that I could write about. New York is very humbling.
Frankie CosmosI started going to rock shows at a really young age, and seeing other young people make music definitely influenced me.
Frankie CosmosWriting songs about it is a really useful way for me to love New York more, and stay observing it, and not just zone it out.
Frankie CosmosThere are some people I've met and it's stressful just speaking to them, because they're really pretentious and I don't know how to talk to them without being pretentious back.
Frankie CosmosMy relationship to New York has changed a lot. I feel lucky to live here. A lot of times you walk through the city and don't notice that you're in a really beautiful neighborhood, or that you're passing a beautiful building. It's nice, as an exercise, to keep aware that you're in a really lucky place.
