In studio, it cycles through the songs as it's supposed to, but when I go to play the game on the ROBLOX website, all of the songs play at once, and for just about a second.

Is this a Script or a LocalScript?

Regular script

I just tried it as a LocalScript and now it doesn't play at all.

Do note (Thanks to GoulStem) sometimes the script will run before the player loads, That's when WaitForChild comes in, Do try it.

What is the purpose of this script? Do you want to put this globally, like in a boombox? Or do you want to play this locally?

If you want to play this globally, where everybody can hear it, keep your script, but shorten it with a "for" loop and a table.

SongTable = {181547615, 143959455, 191819419, 131149175, 151667588, 165719962, 192805609, 252872782, 196183054, 210232032}

Model = script.Parent
Music = Model:WaitForChild("Music")
-- Even though it will load before the server script run, this method is there just in case

while wait() do
	for i, SongID in pairs(SongTable) do
		Music.SoundId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=" .. SongID
		repeat
			wait()
		until Music.TimeLength > 0
		--[[

		I printed out the TimeLength in the server before I implemented the
		"repeat" loop, and it turns out that the TimeLength is 0. Could be
		because the script is running way too fast to let the Sound object
		read the length of the audio file.

		--]]
		Music:Play()
		wait(Music.TimeLength)
		Music:Stop() -- Why not?
	end
end

Else put the Sound in the local script and parent it to StarterGui.

SongTable = {181547615, 143959455, 191819419, 131149175, 151667588, 165719962, 192805609, 252872782, 196183054, 210232032}

Music = script:WaitForChild("Music")

while wait() do
	for i, SongID in pairs(SongTable) do
		Music.SoundId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=" .. SongID
		repeat
			wait()
		until Music.TimeLength > 0
		Music:Play()
		wait(Music.TimeLength)
		Music:Stop()
	end
end

not that it matters, but it bugs me. Use tostring(SongID).
