Hey hey...
...am I the only one who thinks this stuff is pretty boring and bland. Yes...there is Mellotron and/or Chamberlin but still...it sounds like the music the play on airplanes during the safety demonstration...Just my opinion....
My english isn't that great. Does the word soaring mean reverb ?

Well, it' appears to be the backing track to Land of Make Believe from Seventh Sojourn which makes it a Chamberlin with the Solo Female voice in the mix.

Mattias,

Your English is a damn sight better than our Swedish! No need to apologize. (Actually, your English is quite good, I think.)

"Soaring" in this case means "to rise to an exalted level" or something like that.

The funny thing about this clip is that it doesn't sound very well recorded, which is odd because the Moodies recordings are generally pretty good.

Cheers,

Rick

No, it means cutting up wood with a soar. Like when you veneer to the right when driving. I'll get my stimulated leather jacket..................
