In Greek mythology, Calchas (Κάλχας, possibly meaning "bronze-man"), son of Thestor, was an Argive seer, with a gift for interpreting the flight of birds that he received of Apollo: "as an augur, Calchas had no rival in the camp". He also interprets the entrails of the enemy during the tide of battle.
It was Calchas who prophesied that in order to gain a favourable wind to deploy the Greek ships mustered in Aulis on their way to Troy, Agamemnon would need to sacrifice his daughter, Iphigeneia, to appease Apollo, whom Agamemnon had offended; the episode was related at length in the lost Cypria, of the Epic Cycle. He also states that Troy will be sacked on the ninth year of the war.
In the Iliad, Calchas tells the Greeks that the captive Chryseis must be returned to her father Chryses in order to get Apollo to stop the plague he has sent as a punishment: this triggered the quarrel of Achilles and Agamemnon, the main theme of the Iliad.
In Sophocles' Ajax, Calchas delivers a prophecy to Teucer suggesting that the protagonist will die if he leaves his tent before the day is out.

Plot: Tantalus: Behind the Mask follows the tumultuous creation of one of the most ambitious feats in the modern theatre -- the 12-hour recreation of the Epic Cycle, the sprawling Greek creation story which spawned all of Greek mythology. The production became a struggle between writer John Barton and director Sir Peter Hall, who had been fast friends since founding the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1961, but left the battlefields of Tantalus bitter enemies.

Plot: Nineteenth century Wyoming: the wild West. Mild-mannered Tom Healy has a two-wagon theater troupe hounded by creditors because Angela, his leading lady and the object of his affection, constantly buys clothes. In Cheyenne, they meet with applause, so they hope to stay awhile: the theater owner likes Angela, and she keeps him on a string. She's also the object of the attentions of Mabry, a gunslinger who's owed money by the richest man in Bonanza. Complications arise and the troupe heads for Bonanza, through hostile Indian territory. Is the troupe doomed to a peripatetic life, is Mabry in danger, and does Tom stand a chance with Angela, a hellion in pink tights?

Hhrst du meine stimme

vertrau auf deine sinne
ich mein'dich bitte glaube mir
ich hab'gesehn wie du blutest wie du
schwitzt und du weinst
doch weil ich ich und du du bist ist jetzt
dein leid nicht meins
interessenkonflikte verklren den sinn
mein in kleinkrieg verstricktes ich vergass
wer ich bin
Verstehst du was ich sage
weisst du was ich mein
'stellst du dir nicht auch die frage
was uns davon abhlt vollkommen zu sein
wir sind im augenblick khl fr unseres
nchsten leid
wir brauchen mehr mitgefhl sonst bleiben
wir ewig entzweit
das was du nicht ertragen willst fge mir
auch nicht zu
denn mit dem schmerz den ich fhl'kommst
auch du nicht zur ruh
ch bin du merkst du nicht
ich bin du und du ich
ich bin du eigentlich
bin ich du und du ich
du bist ich und ich du
du bist ich doch wir zu
