Who sang to Odysseus ships?

You must be referring to the occasion when Odysseus and his crew were forced to sail past the Sirens. It was said their song was so enchanting that men could not resist and would turn their ships into the nearby rocks to get nearer to the enchanting sound. Invariably the ships would be destroyed and the crews lost.

Odysseus was told he must endure the call of the Sirens, so he had his men plug their ears with wool and wax, and then he was strapped to the mast of the boat. The men sailed by, immune to the call of the Sirens, and Odysseus survived, as he was fated to do.
