Originally calling themselves the A Cappella Circle when they were at the University of Waseda, they changed their name to the Gospellers in 1991 after graduating. They spent the next ten years working towards national recognition, releasing 24 singles and 9 albums during that time. They became the first complete a cappella group to be in the top 3 of the Oricon chart ranking in Japan with their song, "HITORI".

In early 2006, the group made a side-project release, Gosperats, featuring the members in blackface and singing with a jazzier accompaniment Rats & Star's member Masayuki Suzuki, Nobuyoshi Kuwano and Yoshio Sato. Many of the western Gospeller fans were upset about the outrage it caused on some discussion forums, many non-fans felt offended by the blackface the group members had chosen to take on. Fortunately, this project was announced as a side-project and released only one album under its name.

The members of Gospellers are now producers for several Japanese artists, including Tatsuya Ishii and Masayuki Suzuki. (This text has been cited from Wikipedia)

無限大の妄想が揺れる怪しく
「ねぇもっと強く抱いて」
「私を離さないで」
そう言ってた君が
どういう訳か今日も帰らない
唇を濡らして指先踊らせて
今頃は何処で誰の胸抱かれてるの
真夜中の電話

上手く誤魔化せたとでも
思っているのは君だけ君だけ
嘘でも信じたいもっと愛したい
出来ることならばいつまでも
無限大の妄想が揺れる
怪しく疑いが
今夜もオレを誘う想いは
この想いはもう Unlimited
首筋に残る
夜の傷跡も気付かないで
この腕の中で一体どんな夢を見るの
ベッドの途中で溜め息こぼすなんて
誰よりも強くその愛を奪えないの
偽りのキスで
上手く誤魔化せたとでも
思っているのは君だけ君だけ
今夜は逃さないずっと離さない
その心全て
Baby Baby いつまでも
無限大の妄想が揺れる
怪しく疑いが
今夜もオレを誘う想いは
この想いはもう Unlimited
無限大の妄想が揺れる
怪しく疑いが
今夜もオレを誘う想いは
この想いはもう Unlimited
彷徨って彷徨って寄り添って
今だってその肌の上を
眠れない頭を駆け巡る
妄想が暴走さ
止まらない止まらない
何もいらない何もいらない
君を君を君だけを奪えるなら
無限大の妄想が揺れる
怪しく疑いが
今夜もオレを誘う想いは
この想いはもう Unlimited
無限大の妄想が揺れる
怪しく疑いが

今夜もオレを誘う想いは
この想いはもう Unlimited

The singer asks their partner's whereabouts and who else is holding them now. The longing of the singer for their partner is intense, and they want to believe even in the lies their partner tells them because they want to love them more.

The person is haunted by their thoughts about the uncertainties of the relationship, but they are distraught that they can't let go. The singer's desires are unlimited, and they do not want to lose their partner at any cost.
