this is the script:

local aa = script.Parent
local Image = script.Parent.Image
local Audio = script.Parent.Song


script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	if
		Audio.Playing = true 
		Image = "image id one"
	else
	    Audio.Playing = false 
	    Image = "image id two"
	end
end)

The if statement requires a == (double equals sign) to work.

You need to add then keyword after Audio.Playing == true.

Not entirely true. What it requires is a condition. Something that you could say is “false” and something you could say is “true”

if "hello" then
    print"world"
end

will print “world” because strings have “truthiness”

he forgot the then statement.

change it to

if Audio.Playing == true then
   Image.ImageID = 112902314
else 
 --whatever you do here
end

you were tryin to put an id in an object instead of into the imageid property

firstly, i have no clue why you would be setting the audio playing to false when you already verified that it isnt playing
further, could you try adding prints inside both variations? and do you have any errors in output?

So you are checking if the audio is playing?

Try

local aa = script.Parent
local Image = script.Parent.Image
local Audio = script.Parent.Song

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	if Audio.Playing == true  then -- Check if audio is playing 
		Image.ImageID = 112902314
	else -- If audio is not playing then change image to something else
		Image.ImageID = 73737626
	end
end)

Edit: Some changes

Here’s my attempt to fix this thread.

local button = script.Parent
local Audio = script.Parent.Song

button.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	if not Audio.Playing then -- or: if Audio.Playing == false then
		Audio.Playing = true
		button.Image = "rbxassetid://112902314"
	else
		Audio.Playing = false
		button.Image = "rbxassetid://73737626"
	end
end)
