Yes i do have a clue. What are you trying to play it in. It will work just fine on almost all computer cd-rom drives. There are two reasons why it wont work in normal drives.
1. Your drive isn't capable of playing mp3's
2. Your drive isn't capable of reading cd-rw's
If you cant read this cd even from the drive that burnt it then dont bother with the following (you stuffed up the burning somewhere) otherwise read on.
Even if you were to make an audio cd on the rw then you still wont be able to play it on most cd players.
Basically for audio cds (assuming you dont have a mp3 player) is use a program such as nero to create an audio cd, then add the mp3 files and burn onto a cd-r instead of a cd-rw. It should automatically convert them into .wav files and make the audio cd.
If you have an mp3 player just do what you did before except burn onto a cd-r instead of a cd-rw.
Hope that helps :)
