its like as artistic as it gets, and serious stuff also, but who actually had the idea for that famous One Vison last line? Was it Jim Hutton?

According to Jim Hutton, it was Freddie who said "Fried Chicken" but I dont know if someone else have another version of that line

Are you talking about who came up with it, or who sings the line in the actual track? On the track it's quite obviously Freddie and either Roger & Brian (most likely) on vocal harmonies, or multiple overdubs of Freddie. As for who's idea it was, I've heard the story many times and each time it's been different in some respect. As far as I know, they'd eaten fried chicken for dinner, and Freddie had the idea to throw it in as the closing line. Jim Hutton encouraged him to do so, saying that he was 'big enough' to get away with it.

... at a time when Jim scarcely knew who Queen were, let alone that they were big enough. :-)

It's not the last line.
After 'fried chicken' there's a multi-tracked 'vision vision vision vision...' and then 'God works in mysterious ways'. *That* is the last line.

I bet he quite soon realised how big they were. Let alone he was on Live Aid backstage. That is almost the bigest they could get (and we are talking BIG) with some exceptions.

Yeah, fair enough. In my strange convoluted mind, I consider it the last line in the lead vocal, at least. My mistake.

Have none of you seen the footage from the One Vision sessions where Freddie sings random words? Fried Chicken stuck, it's that simple.

I think you are right.

Not a vegan, that's for sure! But maybe a vegan did say something like "Chicken Feed Babe".

God rest him
According to his book he was well aware of who David bowie was
How anyone with even a faint interest in popular culture could not recognize queen is quite beyond me
Jings, I'd even recognize one direction
Ahem...

I always thought it was funny until I wondered if it was a stab at Martin Luther King Jr. ;)

Jim was a hairdresser and wrote in his book that he knew Bowie cause people wanted to have his hairstyle.
About the fact that he didnt knew Queen, that's not as strange as you may think. I didnt knew Muse or that girl who sang WWRY (among other acts) until I saw them at the Olympics also, remember that there wasnt internet in the 70s/80s so it was a lot harder for people not into the rock/pop/metal/whatever scene to know even the most famous acts.
