You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet is a song by a Canadian rock band called Bachman–Turner Overdrive (BTO). Randy Bachman wrote the song for the band's third album called Not Fragile in 1974. They released it as a single that same year, with another song called "Free Wheelin'" on the flip side.

The song became really popular, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and also on the Canadian RPM chart in November 1974. It was their biggest hit in the United Kingdom too, reaching number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. They also had another song called "Roll on Down the Highway" that did pretty well in the UK, though not as big as this one.
