Although the project released four singles in the mid '90s, with initial singers Kimberley Kearney and Dacia Bridges, worldwide success came with third vocalist, Tina Harris. Everything's Gonna Be Alright was released in 1997, which topped charts around the world and started a musical theme, sampling classical music, which the project would later become known for.
Tina Harris left after two years, with Jade Villalon replacing her as the fourth vocalist with five original albums, all reaching Gold or Platinum in Korea. Villalon, along with "Geo" left the project after seven years to go on and do other projects.
Vocalist Jamie Pineda took the role as new vocalist shortly after in late 2007 and then releasing her first studio album The Next Generation in 2009, which was produced by Derek Bramble. Pineda released one more album, Diamond Veil in 2011 and it was released in Japan and Korea, as the 8th studio album from Sweetbox.
In 2013, famed Japanese singer Miho Fukuhara became the new frontwoman and for the first time in the projects history, male vocalist/rapper LogiQ Pryce would co-front the project with her. The studio album, titled #Zeitgeist21 is due for release in July 2013.

Everything's gonna be alright
Whoever thought the sun would come crashing down
My life in flames, my tears complete the pain
We fear the end, the dark as deep as river bed
My book of life incomplete without you here
Alone I sit and reminisce
And meanwhile you know I never cry
'Cause deep down inside, you know our love will never ever die
Everything's gonna be alright (yeah)
Everything's gonna be okay (no doubt)
Everything's gonna be alright
Together we can take this one day at a time
Can you take my breath away? (Yeah)
Can you give him life today? (No doubt)
'Cause everything's gonna be okay
I'll be your strength
I'll be here when you wake up
Take your time and I'll be here when you wake up (ah-ha)
I never thought my heart would miss a single beat
Caress your hand as I watch you while you sleep
So sweet, I weep as I search within
To find a cure, to bring you back again
And the sun will rise open up your eyes
Surprise, just a blink of an eye
I try, I try to be positive
You're a fighter, so fight
Wake up and live
Everything's gonna be alright (yeah)
Everything's gonna be okay (no doubt)
Everything's gonna be alright
Together we can take this one day at a time
Can you take my breath away? (Yeah)
Can you give him life today? (No doubt)
'Cause everything's gonna be okay
I'll be your strength
I'll be here when you wake up
Everything's gonna be alright
(I'll wait a lifetime)
I'd give my life to only see you breathe again
Hand in hand as we walk on the white sands
To hear your voice, rejoice as you rise and say
This is the day that I wake pray, okay
Today's silence as time just moves on
You can hear it though
But I'm playing my favorite songs
I miss you much, I wish you'd come back to me
You see I'd wait a lifetime 'cause you're my destiny
Everything's gonna be alright (yeah)
Everything's gonna be okay (no doubt)
Everything's gonna be alright

I was 19 years diagnosed with cancer in final stage. I was given 8 month of life. I remembered this song. At that time it was 4-5 years old. During the months in hospital, during chemo I was always listening to this song.. and repeating to myself -try to be positive,you are a fighter so wake up and LIVE ... everything's gonna be ok... I listened this song for more than hundred times. And I did it, I survived. And whenever I feel stuck or sad I just play this song and feel better
