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.

Sweetbox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you know what you're looking for?
Why your tears dry clear?
Do you know why you're breaking hearts?
Why you're ending up back at the start? (Oh oh)
Do you know why you're waking up? (More that we)
The more that we know (give you) the less we know (They'll try)
Somewhere beyond this
Somewhere I know
There's something better
Ooh oh I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
(Tell me) Do you know What you're fighting for?
Why your dreams still burn? (oh yeah)
Do you know why you wake at night?
Why you close your eyes?
When you should fight? (Oh oh)
Do you know what you really love? (More that we)
The more that we know (give you) the less we know (They'll try)
Somewhere (Where you going to?) beyond this (one of us will)
Somewhere (Where the sky goes on) I know (Where the sun'll beat strong)
There's (So many things you love) something better (And it's really lover)
Ooh oh I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
(Do you know? Do you know why your heart stands still?)
Do you know what you're waiting for?
Why your heart stands still?
Do you know what your limits are?
Are you reaching out with open arms? (Oh oh)
Do you know all your inner truths? (Moments)
The more that we (In you) know the less we know (they'll try)
Somewhere (Where you going to) beyond this (one of us will)
Somewhere (Where the sky goes on) I know (Where the sun'll beat strong)
There's (So many things you love) something better (And it's really lover)
Ooh oh I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
Somewhere (Where you going to) beyond this (One of us will)
Somewhere (Where the sky goes on) I know (Where the sun'll beat strong)

Ooh oh I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
There's something better uh huh.
