OK. I ran the code but... Something else broke.
It was playing the sound great as I wanted it but, now it only plays the same sound once. I echoed the %RAND% var and it does come up with random numbers but also after that it says "Access Denied". Never get any look with this type a' thing... =-( (I've tried running as administrator but no luck.)

it was a stack overflow post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23313709/play-invisible-music-with-batch-file
here is what they gave the person:
@echo off
set "file=track12.mp3"
( echo Set Sound = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7"^)
echo Sound.URL = "%file%"
echo Sound.Controls.play
echo do while Sound.currentmedia.duration = 0
echo wscript.sleep 100
echo loop
echo wscript.sleep (int(Sound.currentmedia.duration^)+1^)*1000) >sound.vbs
start /min sound.vbs

The batch part is the bit I made... But it said from my knowledge that this bit:
echo wscript.sleep (int(Sound.currentmedia.duration^)+1^)*1000) >sound.vbs
        ^
it thought it should be end of statement so just echo wscript.sleep

DOESN'T WORK! That's the title of the question.
