Amplify have partnered with YouTube Originals on the launch of the first episode of their debut series 'Birthday Song'. This is a short content piece based on Capaldi discovering that the No. 1 song on the day he was born was 'Setting Sun' by the Chemical Brothers.

The episode follows Capaldi's journey from initial research through to crafting his own version and ultimately showcasing this final cover in a performance.
