Jacqui Copland

Jacqui Copland is a Scottish vocalist. Jacqui began her musical career as a member of an Aberdeen (Scotland) band called Private ID, followed by a move to London becoming the lead singer of the rock band Vera Cruz. She has toured as backing vocalist for musical acts such as Climie Fisher, Paul Young and performed on Duran Duran's Big Live Thing Tour. In 1990, she became a member of The Dreamfield, alongside Stuart Elliot and Rick Driscoll. Later she contributed both lead and backing vocals on the Alan Parsons 1993 solo album Try Anything Once, working with Alan Parsons on the track "Mr Time" which she wrote the lyric/vocal melody. On giving up backing singing, Jacqui then formed the band Copland in 1995 with Adrian York, playing the London circuit. During this period she wrote and recorded an extensive repertoire of contemporary rock with an eccentric twist. This included the track "Bored", released on the albums Cosmic Spaceman and Karma Suit Ya. The band disbanded in 1999.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
