calypso and Circe
In the Odyssey, Odysseus stays on the Calypso's island of Ogygia for 7 years. Other accounts say 5 years, while the story by Hyginus states one.He also spent a year on Circe's island Aeaea.
The suitors beg Odysseus for mercy, offering apologies and excuses for their behavior, while attempting to justify their actions by blaming the influence of the gods and their own desires for Penelope. They plead for their lives, promising to repay Odysseus and make amends for their wrongdoings.
When Odysseus was with Calypso, he initially enjoyed her hospitality but eventually grew homesick and longed to return to his wife, Penelope, and his homeland, Ithaca. With Circe, he was initially wary of her magic but eventually grew fond of her and found her to be a valuable ally in his journey home.

Calypso music originated in Trinidad and Tobago as a way for African slaves to communicate and express themselves. It evolved over time to incorporate influences from various musical styles, including West African, French, Spanish, and English. Through its lyrics and rhythmic beats, calypso has become a powerful form of social commentary and storytelling, addressing issues such as politics, culture, and daily life.
There are different accounts of the exact amount of time he spent as captive on her island, but most of them say that he spent a year on Circe's island, 7 years on Calypso's island, and 2 years being blown around from island to another. It took him a total of 10 years to get back to Ithaca after the Trojan War
