"The Big Picture" is a song by American synth-pop band Y Kant Tori Read, commercially released by Atlantic Records in 1988 exclusively as a 7" vinyl single in a generic label sleeve.

A 12" promotional vinyl single was also issued with an accompanying picture sleeve.

It is typical of the era, featuring a scantily clad Amos cavorting and wreaking havoc on a sound-stage made to resemble the back alleys of Los Angeles.

It is notable for a narrative introductory bit during which Amos argues with a police officer about her illegally parked car.

The officer, undeterred, hands her the ticket and walks off with her garter belt hanging out of his back pocket.
