Marilyn had a decent hit with Calling Your Name and Baby You Left Me is another memorable tune. He also appeared on the Band Aid single Do They Know Its Christmas? When he visited Australia for a promotional tour in 1984 he was mobbed by fans.

Robinson disappeared from public life and in interviews has talked about his battles with drug addiction. Back in 2015 he appeared alongside Boy George and Geri Halliwell on a celebrity edition of the UK version of Gogglebox.
Now he’s revealed some new music that’s been produced by Boy George. George’s has just posted a teaser video for Marilyn’s ska song Wrongun. The video features a comical clip of Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump.
