The seventh note used to be "si" in English too. It was changed to "ti" to avoid having two notes start with an "s" ("so" and "si"). That might seem a trivial reason, but it's a problem when you add sharps and flats. So-sharp is called "si" and so-flat is "se" (pronounced "say"). If the seventh note is also "si," then si-flat would also be "se." The whole doremi system comes from the first syllable of the seven lines of a Gregorian chant. The chant starts out on the syllable "ut," which the French still use for "do," but for everyone else, it was changed to "do." There are various explanations for where "do" came from.

Brilliant video, if anyone finds a video of this full show, please send me a link if you can
I'm pretty sure it's all about the language.. But I'm curious why ti became si for the Russian lyrics.
That's what Russians always call it in musical notation. Now why that is, I have no idea.

This would be amazing if this was in English.
