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:
“The slightest living thing answers a deeper need than all the works of man because it is transitory. It has an evanescence of life, or growth, or change: it passes, as we do, from one stage to the another, from darkness to darkness, into a distance where we, too, vanish out of sight. A work of art is static; and its value and its weakness lie in being so: but the tuft of grass and the clouds above it belong to our own travelling brotherhood.”
—Freya Stark (b. 1893–1993)
“Shopping seemed to take an entirely too important place in women’s lives. You never saw men milling around in men’s departments. They made quick work of it. I used to wonder if shopping was a form of escape for women who had no worthwhile interests.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
