    More recently, some young Iranians performed the "Happy Song" as a video and placed their video on the internet. The Iranian government arrested the perpetrators, and they were jailed and charged and convicted for "crimes against Islam". They were sentenced to prison time and 50 lashes for their criminal acts. 

    Here is their criminal behavior, if you are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYnLRf-SNxY
