Play an iTunes playlist URL on startup

I'd like iTunes to automatically start playing a certain Internet radio station each time I log in. Is there a way to get iTunes to play a specific song (or playlist) upon login, the same way you can get an application to start up on login?

"Mike's answer worked for iTunes 9, but unfortunately it doesn't work for iTunes 10 (see the link in the comment). Here's how to do it with Applescript:

Open up ""Applescript Editor"", and write the following script:

tell application ""iTunes""
play user playlist ""Radio Paradise""
end tell

Save it as an application, and then add the app as one of the login items in the Accounts menu bar under System Preferences."
