iTunes: changing song name

I cannot figure out how to change the name, artist, etc of a track (song) in iTunes that is selected (highlighted) but is not currently playing. Consequently, I've resorted to the following script that briefly plays each selected track to make it the current track before changing its name. Is there a way to change the track name without playing the track? Thanks!

tell application "iTunes"
	set myList to selection of window 1
	repeat with myTrack in myList
		play myTrack
		stop
		set name of current track to "foo"
	end repeat
end tell
