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 press is no substitute for institutions. It is like the beam of a searchlight that moves restlessly about, bringing one episode and then another out of darkness into vision. Men cannot do the work of the world by this light alone. They cannot govern society by episodes, incidents, and eruptions. It is only when they work by a steady light of their own, that the press, when it is turned upon them, reveals a situation intelligible enough for a popular decision.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
“There was a deserted log camp here, apparently used the previous winter, with its “hovel” or barn for cattle.... It was a simple and strong fort erected against the cold, and suggested what valiant trencher work had been done there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
