Editing the year in iTunes

When in iTunes, I can change the song name, artist, album title, and genre simply by clicking in the field and retyping what I want. Is there a way to do this with the year column? So far the only way I can change the year is by "right clicking" the track, going to "Song Info" and changing it under the details tab. It would be much more convenient to change the year like I can with most of the other columns.
