I want to make an app for my mom's birthday which is tomorrow that displays a happy birthday message(already got that taken care of) and plays the happy birthday song when the app is opened. I'm a complete noob to android programming and don't know anything more than basic xml but I want to get this done. Can you guys please show me how what code to use to play a song on opening the app without any more input from the user?

Try this
If you want to play song when the app is opened then do following step
step 1. First create the folder named raw in res/ directory.
step 2. Put your birthday song in raw directory in you project.
Then write below code in you activity.
class Playsong extends Activity {
MediaPlayer mPlayer;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mPlayer= MediaPlayer.create(getApplicationContext(), R.raw.songname);
mPlayer.start();
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
mPlayer.stop();
mPlayer.release();
}
}

First of all put the song file in raw
folder under res
folder. After that in your activity:
public static MediaPlayer splashSound;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
splashSound = MediaPlayer.create(SplashScreen.this, R.raw.start_music);
splashSound.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
@Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer splashSound) {
splashSound.stop();
splashSound.release();
});
