Introduction
Artist：ReGLOSS
Songname: Hour Time Yellow (アワータイムイエロー)
ReGLOSS’s second-anniversary gift to fans is “Hour Time Yellow,” a propulsive, autumn-tinted single released September 13 as the advance cut from their forthcoming album Snapshot (out November 12). Produced by OHTORA and maeshima soshi, the track pairs shimmering synth leads with a driving four-on-the-floor groove, giving the five members a sleek runway to swap rapid-fire verses and soaring, chant-along hooks. Lyrically the song keeps returning to its twin mantras—“Yellow, yellow” and “Stay Gold”—turning the color of falling leaves into a metaphor for moments that glow briefly yet burn forever. The result feels like a pocket-sized time capsule: nostalgic, urgent and irresistibly danceable.
The fully animated MV, crafted by Studio KAI, deepens that contrast between fleeting and eternal. Rendered in warm sepias and sudden gold flares, the girls move through clock towers and city streets where every leaf freezes mid-air the instant they sing, as if begging the world to pause long enough to feel everything at once. Fan reaction was immediate, topping trends on Japanese Twitter and earning the group their loudest streaming debut to date. For ReGLOSS, “Hour Time Yellow” is more than a seasonal banger—it’s a statement that growth can sound celebratory, and that even the shortest hour can be stretched into a lifetime of color if you keep it shining in memory.
ソラヲボエで挑む 人生ゲーム
言い訳めいたハートに従って
現実は半即興なプロットです
取り憑かれるオーバーな芝居
世渡り上手なあの子はね (Hey)
二度と被った猫 外せない
痛みを知ってしまった Magician
手の内は未だ明かせない
Yellow Yellow
ゼロからループ 点滅するピリオド
Yellow Yellow
染まる紅い化粧
I wonder if I can make it or not
例え ツキに見放されても
No worries 私には私がついてる
宵が醒めるまであと少しだけ
真のＩ 捕える残像
Slow and steady wins the race
次の季節を越え Blooming Blooming
どうかこの音を止めないで
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
ずっと Stay Gold
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
Let’s enjoy the moment
Look Into the mirror
絡まってる蜘蛛の糸
It happens all the time
踊らされたって構わない
夜を日に継いで 時を編んで 明け暮れて
Always be Honest
永遠に変わらないもの
Yellow Yellow
手を取り合えば そこに理由はいらない
Yellow Yellow
染まる紅い化粧
A smile suits you best
幾つになっても Changeless
希望 夢は人知れず
歪で数奇な運命や
人生ごと受け入れる
心機一転 二転三転 詠んで第五感で Lock on
右見て左見て Pause 前だけ向いて Go on
歌い続ける 24/7
終着地点は Eden or Heaven？
No time to waste
“今”だけを信じてる
最後のフィナーレまで 共に進め
宵が醒めるまであと少しだけ
真のI 捕える残像
Slow and steady wins the race
次の季節を越え Blooming Blooming
どうかこの音を止めないで
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
ずっと Stay Gold
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
Let’s enjoy the moment
Life game of the year
Excuse your heart
Reality is a half improvised plot
An overtaken play
A good boy
Cat never caught again
I knew the pain Magician
I can’t make myself understood
Yellow Yellow
Loop from zero to blink
Yellow Yellow
Red makeup
I wonder if I can make it or not
Even if he is released by the dust
No worries I’m on my side
Just a little before the evening
True I caught afterimage
Slow and steady wins the race
Beyond the next season Blooming Blooming
Don’t stop this noise
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
All along Stay Gold
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
Let’s enjoy the moment
Look Into the mirror
A twisted thread of spider
It happens all the time
It’s no use dancing
At night, after the night
Always be Honest
Things that never change forever
Yellow Yellow
If you get your hands, there’s no reason
Yellow Yellow
Red makeup
A smile suits you best
Even if Changeless
Dream of hope is unknown
Distortion and odd fate
Accept every life
In the fifth sense Lock on
Look right and left Pause Just before Go on
24 / 7
End point Eden or Heaven？
No time to waste
I believe only now
Advance to final Finale
Just a little before the evening
True I The remaining image
Slow and steady wins the race
Beyond the next season Blooming Blooming
Don’t stop this noise
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
All along Stay Gold
Hourtime Yellow Yellow
Let it blow Let it blow
Let’s enjoy the moment
Meaning
“Hour Time Yellow” is a three-minute crash course in self-reinvention. The lyrics treat life as an improvised stage plot where excuses, pain and tricks of the heart are all part of the script; the only way forward is to embrace the chaos, loop back to zero if necessary and keep the beat running. Yellow becomes the color of this stubborn optimism—an instant of sunset you can stretch into armor—while the repeated pledge to “Stay Gold” turns the old Outsiders quote into a personal engine. Even when luck deserts you, the song insists you still have yourself, so slow and steady wins: cross the next season, bloom again, and don’t let anyone kill the music until the night’s last echo.
