Hi, that should work indeed. I've done it by moving playhead to the 
starting point of the to-be-moved section of the song, hitting Ctrl+A, 
then hitting S (make sure that Edit point is set as Playhead), then 
doing the same for end point, then selecting all those to-be-moved 
regions (Ctrl pressed while selecting) and dragging them all at once to 
a better place...

If things get screwed, Ctrl+Z is the reverse gear.
