"Shadows of the Night" is a song composed by D.L. Byron explicitly for the 1980 film #TimesSquare, which tells the story of two young runaways in New York City. The song did not make it into the movie and Byron's own record label rejected it, claiming the song "wasn't commercial enough." It was released as a single by #HelenSchneider in 1981 as well as on her album Schneider with the Kick. According to Byron, Schneider's version went 5× platinum in #Germany.
