It's NOT shadows, it's SHATTERS. I don't give a crap what the "official" Bob Dylan website says. People need to start using their grey matter.
Dylan used the lyrics "evening shatters" as a form of imagery, as if the evening sky was made of opaque glass. When you "shatter" the "evening" glass, it falls into the horizon and night-time (i.e. "the stars") appears as if it were a backdrop. Those who think it's "shadows" must be completely unable to mentally visualize such things..
Think about it. When the evening shadows AND the stars appear? How does that make ANY SENSE, at all? When's the last time you saw a naturally lit shadow OF ANYTHING, and stars in the sky AT THE SAME TIME???
Those of you who feel me, be stubborn about this one. I am with you. Don't let the crap that artists like Adele have been putting out in recent years set any kind of precedent. Time and retrospection will reward us all with victory..
