He also – along with Lance Ellington, Mae McKenna, Mike Stock and Miriam Stockley – provided backing vocals on the Sybil (singer) single "Stronger Together". The same year – with Lance Ellington, Mae McKenna and Miriam Stockley – Mullins provided backing vocals for Suzette Charles on her debut single Free To Love Again.

1990

Michael J. Mullins, Peter Howarth and Keith Murrell provided backing vocals for Cliff Richard and the Shadows on the tracks "On The Beach" and "Do You Wanna Dance". The songs are featured on the compilation album Knebworth: The Album (1990).

1988

Mullins provided backing vocals for Cliff Richard on his No. 1 hit "Mistletoe and Wine" (1988); he also appeared on the live recording, which aired on Top of the Pops that same year (December). He has since provided backing vocals for Cliff Richard on a number of projects including the tracks – "The Best of Me" and "Joanna" – on the album Stronger, television appearances and live concerts; these include Des O'Connor Tonight, Knebworth Festival (1990), and the Live and Kicking tour at The Royal Albert Hall (2004).

1985

It was reported in a 1985 edition of The Sun that Mullins was to quit Modern Romance. Many 1980s pop bands were suffering towards the close of the 1980s and it seemed that Modern Romance were unable to shake that Latin Beat. Mullins would turn full circle and return primarily to the role of backing vocalist.

Since leaving Modern Romance in 1985, Mullins has worked with Samantha Fox, Lulu, Cliff Richard, Michael Bolton, Donny Osmond, Joni Mitchell, George Harrison, Christopher Cross, James Ingram, Bonnie Tyler, Tom Jones, Alan Parsons and The Alan Parsons Project, The Celtic Tenors, Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue, Mike Moran, Ronan Browne, Gavyn Wright, Patrick Kernan, Keith Murrell, Chris Thompson, and Peter Howarth of The Hollies among others.

1983

Modern Romance subsequently released their second studio album titled Trick of the Light (1983). The album was a success, reaching No. 53 on the UK Album Chart, and one significant change was the re-recording of the single "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White" [New Version] (the new recording of this version was included on both Trick of the Light and Party Tonight) with Mullins lending the song his softer vocals. The album itself has since made it into the Taschen book, 1000 Record Covers, that showcases the most interesting and original vinyl cover art from the 1960s – 1990s (Mullins and David Jaymes grace the front cover of the album). The third single to be taken from Trick of the Light – "Don't Stop That Crazy Rhythm" (1983) – made the Top 20, eventually rising to No. 14. The final single – an uncharacteristic ballad titled "Walking in the Rain" (1983) – settled again in the Top 10 at No. 7. Mullins toured with Modern Romance extensively, across Europe and the Far East; they picked-up silver and gold discs along the way, released the album Juanita (1983) in Japan, and reached the No. 1 spot in Thailand with "Walking in the Rain" (1983).

Despite Modern Romance being an established name in pop music, it seemed that David Jaymes and Mullins would remain generally at the forefront, their faces appearing on the majority of the record and magazine covers. Vinyl Picture discs of the singles "High Life" (1983) and "Don't Stop That Crazy Rhythm" (1983) indeed featured the faces and signatures of both Jaymes and Mullins (one on each side), as did the posters included with these singles. The pair also appeared in an article for the Tucker's Luck TV annual titled Best 1980s Artifact; Mullins (and Jaymes) appeared alongside Nick Heyward of Haircut One Hundred, Boy George of Culture Club, Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran, and Steve Norman of Spandau Ballet. By now, Mullins was prominent enough in the industry to make personal appearances on show like Mike Read's Pop Quiz, whilst the band as a whole enjoyed live performances on TV shows hosted by Kenny Everett, Russell Harty, and The Krankies.

By Christmas 1983 they were ready to release the album, Party Tonight, a compilation containing all the band's hits from both the Jaymes/Deane era and the Jaymes/Mullins era, as well as a handful of cover versions and B-sidess. Party Tonight (1983) – produced by Tony Visconti and released in the UK on the Ronco label – made a significant dent on the UK Albums Chart, cracking the Top-50 at No. 45. Mullins' vocals could also be heard – along with the rest of the band – across the radio waves, as jingles for the Radio 1 evening show were adapted from various Modern Romance hits. The single, "Good Friday" / "Good Feelings" [re-mix] was released simultaneously and reached the UK No. 96 position. Both Party Tonight and Good Friday shared the same cover art, a photo still captured from the band's 1983 ITV advert for Party Tonight. It was around this time that band member John Du Prez went his own way and, taking stock of the poor success of the single Good Friday, Modern Romance decided it was time for a change in both image and music style.

1982

Following the departure of Geoff Deane in late 1982, the Jaymes/Deane era came to an end, and Mullins took over as Lead vocalist for Modern Romance. Their first single – in what would become known as the Jaymes/Mullins era – climbed the UK charts, reaching the top-five. "Best Years of our Life" – which peaked at No. 4 in the UK – would be the band's highest charting single. They quickly followed with the similar sounding single, "High Life", which climbed to the No. 8 position. Modern Romance were holding their own with bands such as Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet, and a myriad TV and magazine appearances followed. They were regulars on Top of the Pops and made an appearance at the Royal Variety Performance.

1981

Mullins began his music career as a backing vocalist and musician for Modern Romance. He is thanked on the sleeve of their debut album, Adventures in Clubland (1981), on which he provided vocals and guitar. During this time he also appeared with the band on episodes of Top of the Pops, and provided further vocals on their single, "By the Way (I'm Still in Love with You)" (1982). The lead singer for Modern Romance was, at the time, Geoff Deane, who had formed the band with David Jaymes, two remnants of punk rock band The Leighton Buzzards. Modern Romance had reached No. 1 in Venezuela with Adventures in Clubland – which also earned them a Gold Disc there – and had scored four UK hits, Mullins often lending his vocals and talents as a musician to their live TV appearances and studio work. However, in 1982, Deane would leave the band to pursue a solo career.

1980

The mid-1980s, however, were not as kind to the band. Modern Romance began with a new look, Mullins and the band now sporting long hair and leather jackets. The first single released alongside the band's new image was a cover version of the song "Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)" (1984): the single failed to chart, as did their third studio album, Burn It! (1984), and its subsequent singles: "Burn It!" (1984), "That's What Friends Are For" (1984) and "Move On" (1984). The album was produced by Tony Visconti and featured additional percussion by Luis Jardim. They released a cover version of "Tarzan Boy" and finally the anthology single, "Best Mix of Our Lives" (1985), which contained the hit singles "Everybody Salsa", "Ay Ay Ay Ay Moosey", "High Life", "Don't Stop That Crazy Rhythm", and "Best Years of Our Lives". "Best Mix of Our Lives" reached No. 81 on the UK chart.

1976

Along with Joe Brown, Vicky Brown, Steve Gould, Jeff Lynne, Keith Murrell, and Steve Winwood, Mullins provided backing vocals for George Harrison on the album Best of Dark Horse 1976-1989 (1989). Ringo Starr provided drums.

1953

Michael J. Mullins (born Michael John Mullins, 9 November 1953) is an English lead vocalist, backing singer, and songwriter, best known as the lead singer of Salsa band Modern Romance (1982–85). Modern Romance achieved eight Top 40 singles and two hit albums. After the band called it quits in 1985, Mullins continued working within the music industry, most notably as a backing singer for Cliff Richard: he can be seen singing with Cliff Richard live on Top of the Pops, on the Christmas number one single, "Mistletoe and Wine" (1988). Mullins has since performed with Alan Parsons as part of The Alan Parsons Project.
