Sweetbox is a Los Angeles based pop music project formed in Germany in 1995 by executive producer Heiko Schmidt and music producer Roberto "Geo" Rosan. Throughout the years Sweetbox has had several leading women including Kimberly Kearney, Dacia Bridges, Tina Harris, Jade Villalon, Jamie Pineda and most recently and currently, Miho Fukuhara and LogiQ Pryce.
Although the project released four singles in the mid 1990s, 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.
Sweetbox is the debut album of Sweetbox. It was the first and only album to have Tina Harris on vocals, and the last to have a R&B urban main influence, as Jade Villalon took over on vocals on Classified and changed the sound of Sweetbox to classical infused pop. The album, Sweetbox, was released in 1998 in Europe and Asia. In North America, the album was titled Everything's Gonna Be Alright. In Japan, the album reached double platinum and triple gold status.
The most famous single from this album, "Everything's Gonna Be Alright" (based on J. S. Bach's passage Air, taken from Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068) claimed top ten chart positions in France, UK, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Norway, Finland, Colombia, Lebanon and Israel. The track also stayed for 10 weeks #1 of the World Radio Charts (which is compiled of 150 radio stations in 40 countries).
All songs written and composed by Geoman and Tina Harris, except where noted.
Do you still remember when you promised me the perfect love
And I gave you everything and still you said it wasnt enough
When you hit me verbally put me on my knees and blamed it on me
And Id swallow it down
I let you break my wings chose to become your caged up bird
Ate your bull shit promises and cherished every fucking word
Now like a freedom phoenix burning from a rising sun
Here is my vindication
Alright, okay
Youre gonna get a taste of my heartbreak
Right now, today
Im gonna make you regret all your dirty ways
Alright, okay
Youre gonna get a taste of my heartbreak
Right now, today
Im gonna make you become my human sacrifice
Lets go back into the time you stained my heart like merlot wine
Didnt care if I was sick you left me alone to cry and die
Your human sacrifice alone in your church of love and lies
I did not forget
Im back with ammunition on a mission that will make you pay
Back with a bazooka and a bullet where I wrote your name
Risen up from the ashes ready for my justice day
Here I come for you
