Other Work
In 2000, Lynch teamed with bandmate Keith Duffy and released a novelty version of the Milli Vanilli song, "Girl You Know It's True". They re-wrote the verses in which the original was critical of today's music, but the chorus was kept the same.
In early 2005, Lynch released the song "Don't Go" which was originally a 1988 hit for the band Hothouse Flowers. The same year, he was announced as one of the judges on RTÉ's The All Ireland Talent Show, a reality contest which is modelled on Britain's Got Talent. In 2010, he announced his decision to quit.
In 2008, Lynch published his autobiography The Chancer, which focused on his early years, pop reign, former marriage to Easther Bennett, and newly-found Christianity.
In May 2011, Shane became involved with the launch of a new energy vodka called "Ver2Vodka".

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“One of the grotesqueries of present-day American life is the amount of reasoning that goes into displaying the wisdom secreted in bad movies while proving that modern art is meaningless.... They have put into practise the notion that a bad art work cleverly interpreted according to some obscure Method is more rewarding than a masterpiece wrapped in silence.”
—Harold Rosenberg (19061978)
“Which is more important to you, your field or your children? the department head asked. She replied, Thats like asking me if I could walk better if you amputated my right leg or my left leg.”
—Anonymous Parent. As quoted in Women and the Work Family Dilemma, by Deborah J. Swiss and Judith P. Walker, ch. 2 (1993)
