New song 'Buddy' for Last Exile series announced

Well, 'I.D.' the re-issue went on sale today and, almost as if to celebrate, Maaya's website went and announced a new song - and it's not even Friday! That's how lucky we are.

TVアニメーション「ラストエグザイル―銀翼のファム―」オープニングテーマ
「Buddy」
作詞:坂本真綾　作曲:School Food Punishment,江口 亮　編曲:江口 亮　
ストリングス編曲:江口 亮, 村山達哉

The song is going to be the theme to the new Last Exile series, due out on TV in Japan in October. The title is 'Buddy' and it's actually a collaboration with School Food Punishment. Wow. That's something I didn't expect. The opening to the original Last Exile series is one of my favourite anime OPs (even if the series left me going 'wut?')

I wonder if these two songs are going to be included on the concept album or released on a seperate double a-side single.
