Shadows is a great song, no doubt.
Song for a Winter's Night, however, is a fantastic, classic, memorable song and one of GL's very best. It took me to a different place the very first time I heard it over thirty years ago on Gord's Gold. The picture he paints with just the first two lines is enough for me. It would definitely make my top three if I were to list Gord's best songs. I venture to say that many others would place it that high, as well.
Needless to add, Song for a Winter's Night gets my vote.
