"Funny version (unofficial)
An unofficial funny version of the song, which is basically the funny song part prototypes from the studio recording session assembled together, most of the parts appearing during the studio recording session sections on both Magic Years vol. 1 and Greatest Video Hits, appeared on several bootlegs. It has never been officially released." link
So, anybody got this? Willing to share? I wanna hear!!! Im pretty sure it has to do with the "one clam, one shrimp, one prawn, one chicken" thing that I saw on GVH2, so, anybody got it to share? Please? :)
"Fried chicken"
Another thing that was controversial about this song is why the band sang "Fried chicken" in the end of the song (both the studio and live versions), although the lyrics say "One vision". It was later found out that it was a result of a prank that Freddie Mercury did in the studio, as the band had fried chicken for dinner. It was Freddie's boyfriend, Jim Hutton's, idea to keep it in the song.
is that true?
You don't need to have 'everything' to have this, you just need to buy either

Very easily obtainable, you'll find, and affordable too, certainly with regards to the former suggestion.
Serry is the most overrated QueenZoner ever... :) How can I help you here? It's been already mentioned where you can find this version. It's on some the bootleg compilations too.

If you're familiar with that then you already have the "funny version". I have a bootleg with this funny version and it's just a 40sec clip with Freddie having fun with the lyrics. Taken from the 'making of One Vision'.
