“What You Get Is What You See” is a song by recording artist Tina Turner from her album Break Every Rule (1986). The song was written by the Terry Britten and Graham Lyle team and was notably different from the three previous singles that they had written for Turner, “What’s Love Got to Do with It”, “We Don’t Need Another Hero” and “Two People”, as it was an up-tempo country-tinged rock track featuring Eric Clapton on guitars. Tina Turner said in an interview that “What You Get Is What You See” is her favorite song from the album.
