Object-Orientated-JavaScript How to get the playlist to play actual songs.

So I just finished up Making the UI work with the playlist in the Object Orientated JavaScript course. Now I know we don't actually go over on how to play the actual songs, but if I wanted to implement this into my coding, how could I do that?

I found this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9419263/playing-audio-with-javascript when I googled "play sound javascript"

var audio = new Audio('audio_file.mp3');
audio.play();

But I'm trying to use the playlist we created in the course with Andrew Chalkley in order to play the songs. It's in a playlist with buttons and all, and I added the songs into it but can't get it to play.
