Thanks very much for posting the song. Right now I'm on a very slow connection and the YouTube video won't play properly (although I can see Филипп Киркоров sitting on a bed, loosening his necktie!). But I enjoyed reading the lyrics, although I'm not sure I completely understood this superstition:
So, if someone walks past you with an empty bucket, and greets you, does the bad luck come from staying silent, or from speaking to him?Плохая примета -
Прохожий с пустым ведром,
Он скажет тебе: "Привет!",
А ты промолчи в ответ.
I mean, does the imperative промолчи have a conditional "if" meaning in this context, or is it a "normal" imperative?
