A Listmania! list by Ubulord "Ubulord" (Portugal)
 
Ha-Ha-Ha
1.  Ha-Ha-Ha by Ultravox

£3.49   Used & New from: £2.22
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

Playing With a Different Sex
2.  Playing With a Different Sex by Au Pairs

Used & New from: £31.80
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

Black and White
4.  Black and White by Stranglers

A Wonderful Life
7.  A Wonderful Life by Lara Fabian

Duty Now for the Future

Fundamentales

The Magician's Birthday
14.  The Magician's Birthday by Uriah Heep
