Hi Pedro,

It's a standard cube from rubiks.com.  The solve was slow in that I 
wouldn't normally be making that much noise.  A good solve portion 
blindfolded for me should take about 60 seconds or less.  My best 
solves are about 45 seconds long.

Orienting the corners was a 5-twist algorithm.  (R U2 R' U2 R U R' U)x2 
with some cube rotation.  The song at the end...

The number scheme I use is... for corners... every corner starts off 
with value 1.  If the corner has an orange sticker, add 1.  If the 
corner has a blue sticker, add 2.  If the corner has a yellow sticker, 
add 4.  That'll give you the 8 numbers.

For the edges, 1 to 12 goes... (with white on top, green on front) UF 
UR UL UB FR FL BR BL DF DR DL DB.
