Shin Mazinger - Kanjite Knight, the series opening

The staff working on the new series are resolved to honor the title of the show by making us feel the impact from the very beginning, as they've decided to resuscitate and adapt to the series theme an old hit song, 感じてナイト (Kanjite Night), from LAZY, a popular band in Japan during the 70s.
The song is now titled 感じてKnight (Kanjite Knight) and is performed by a band made of musicians from the aforementioned LAZY and by people from JAM PROJECT (specialized in covers of anime robot series). Leading them is the one and only Hironobu Kageyama (影山 ヒロノブ), the old front man for LAZY, famous amongst the anime crowd for his vocals on such series as Dragon Ball and Saint Seya, amongst others.
感じてKnight (Kanjite Knight) largely differs in style from the old opening for Mazinger Z, but it boasts a powerful magnetism and it's on its way to become a big success in Japan.
You can listen to the song in the embedded video (uploaded by freesouldash on Youtube) and if you like it, you can buy it following the links I provide you under the video.
