Shane Lynch - Other Work

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:

    Art is a private thing, the artist makes it for himself; a comprehensible work is the product of a journalist.... We need works that are strong, straight, precise, and forever beyond understanding.
    Tristan Tzara (1896–1963)

    You haf slafed your life away in de bosses’ mills and your fadhers before you and your kids after you yet. Vat is a man to do with seventeen-fifty a week? His wife must work nights to make another ten, must vork nights and cook and wash in day an’ vatfor? So that the bosses can get rich an’ the stockholders and bondholders. It is too much... ve stood it before because ve vere not organized. Now we have union... We must all stand together for union.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
