Here is a neat program to add iTunes functionality to your menubar, because hey! It's a waste of space anyways unless you load it with icons like I do. This app is available from the You Software and is completely free. Like the above image You Control can be used as media buttons as well song ratings and song selection. What I liked most about it was the scrolling now playing option (which you can set to infinite) to continually show the track info you want to see. Check it out.
