How would i play a specific song in iTunes through java?

I assume I need to somehow connect to iTunes and use the play function with a certain parameter....Can anyone point me in the right direction to learning how to do this?

According to that answer, there is no API. There is only an SDK (via COM) for Windows. In Mac OS, iTunes is controlled via AppleScript(example).

Ik it's too late, but u can use apple script editor. for instance,

Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
                String[] args = {"osascript" , "-e" , "tell application \"iTunes\" to play"};
                try{
                Process process = runtime.exec(args);
                }catch (Exception ex) {                 
                }

this will play a song in itunes
