Did you make sure the iTunes Music Library folder (the default destination setting in iTunes) is empty before doing this? If it works, then it should be what you want. As for adding things in the future, to make sure things stay clean, I would also check the box in settings that says something like "add songs to Music folder when adding to Library" right under the Music Library folder setting. Then you can just take the new track from your external hard drive, drag it into your iTunes library, and it will automatically put it in the folder with everything else on the MBP hard drive as well.
Nothing happens for me as well. Here is what I've done...

- Locate the library files on my PC
- Copy the library files over to the iTunes folder on my Mac
- Open iTunes
- It displays the library exactly how it is on my PC, however, it does not find the files (get the "!" icon next to each file)
- On my Mac, I consolidate the library.
- Nothing happens.
